The Bear Facts
The Bear Facts British Columbia is Bear Country Bear Safety Essentials
As the human population increases and people encroach on what was once wilderness, interaction and conflicts between bears and people become more common or even fatal to humans.
These encounters can be dangerous - all too often they are fatal for the bear.
Bears are not the problem. We are the problem.
The prime reason bears and people come into conflict is improper care of garbage and other attractants. We need to eliminate the source of the problem - our behaviour.
People and bears are sharing space all over British Columbia.
The bears cannot change, but we can.
We can prevent conflict by making a few simple changes in our daily routine.
Make it your responsibility to make our communities safer and to prevent the unnecessary killing of bears.
