Hey, guys, help the BC boys keep their grizzly season. Here's a cross post from another hunting site I frequent:
CBC.ca is having a poll about the sustainability of the "trophy" grizzly bear hunt in BC.
The grizzly hunt in BC is entirely by limited entry (or in the case of non-residents, there is a quota for guide-outfitters). Using a VERY conservative estimate of the population, and annual allowable harvest is set at less than 2% of the population, and it's illegal to shoot any bear in the company of cubs.
The grizzly bear population has been increasing for at least the last decade, and are re-colonizing habitats that they were pushed out of many decades earlier.
We can use help maintaing this hunt in BC as we are currently under a lot of pressure from anti--hunting groups that used the Olympics as a springboard for their revived campaigns.
Please VOTE here.... http://www.cbc.ca/bc/
Thanks,
Canuck
