Hear MNR is looking for townships to apply
There will be a limited hunt in certain WMU's around Timmins, Sudbury, and the Soo for residents only. I don't have the exact units off hand.

Sudbury, Timmins, Sault Ste. Marie, and North Bay all opted in, Thunder bay was the other but I am not sure what their decision was.

n mid-November, Ontario’s Minister of Natural Resources, David Orazietti, announced a two-year bear management pilot program in wildlife management units 13, 14, 29, 30, 36, 39, 41 and 42, all of which have reported high levels of nuisance bear activity.
everything is ok here in sudbury agree to hunt this spring so looks good to go
The spring bear hunt is for ontario residents only, and you can only shoot boars or females without cubs. The MNR has listed the WMU's that the hunt is allowed in. Check turkey hunters post for WMU's.
Info on page 12 OOD magazine Jan/Feb...does anyone else know where things are at with the private members bill beyond the second reading
What is any different in the fall? Anyone who shoots a bear with cubs is pathetic.Quote:

Every hunter should be ready for this,,, the anti's sure will. Nothing in the registry as of today.
OK, that's an opinion. But keep in mind that spring cub is now a legal bear in the fall. Whether one takes it or not is their choice.Quote:
