The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has officially approved the state’s first black bear hunt in a decade, slated to begin this December. The decision, which comes despite significant opposition from numerous conservation and animal welfare organizations, greenlights a 23-day hunting season. This move has reignited intense debate across Florida regarding wildlife management practices, balancing population control with ethical conservation concerns. Proponents within the FWC emphasize the hunt’s role in managing bear populations and mitigating human-bear conflicts, while critics denounce it as inhumane and unnecessary.
