  • “Bear populations may eventually just blink out over time, despite it being a vast landscape.”

    —  Mark Worthing, Sierra Club BC

  • “The grizzly bears lived in our country many thousands of years before human beings arrived. Their sustainability at the top of the natural food chain is an indicator of a healthy natural environment. It is, therefore, important that we cherish these animals and safeguard them from extirpation.”

    — Michael Audain, Grizzly Bear Foundation Founder
