I'm planning a spring bear hunt for 2019. My question is which region is in the most need of a population reduction? I feel I would be contributing to conservation and at the same time filling my freezer.
Thanks

Regions 1 thru 8 ?
"If you ever go into the bush, there are grizzly bears lurking behind just about every bush, waiting to pounce, so you need a powerful gun, with huge bullets" - Gatehouse ~ 2004
There’s even a few left in 9
If you are not fussy about size, or color of bear, come up to Region 7. 2 bears in 2 days, hell 2 bears in one day! Lots of bears to choose from up here! Mid may to end of May be the best time! Moosin

It's actually called the 375 "ouch and ouch"!!

aint that the truth.
First week of June , day trip, count on seeing at least 5 bears in a day
Hunting shows are constantly showcasing Van Island - hunters just walking up the FSR until they see something black, then stock it on the road to within 200 yards and POP - dead bear on the road.
When (months) do the young ones get set on their own from the Sows?
there are bears everywhere...there is a lot of hunting pressure everywhere BUT spring bear is usually much quieter, because not enough people are taking advantage of bear hunting.
We hit up region 7 last year and made it a trout fishing/bear hunting week trip.
Was one of my favorite trips.
Sleep in. Go fish a few hours. Have a trout shore lunch. Go hunt bears mid day to evening. Repeat.
