Grizzly Cubs Should Be Rehabbed

Grizzly Cubs Should Be Rehabbed

Grizzly Cubs Should Be Rehabbed is a guest editorial published on the LETHBRIDGE HERALD OPINION on June 25, 2020 written by Judy Malone of TOURISTS AGAINST TROPHY HUNTING

In his response to a recent open letter to the Alberta and B.C. governments, signed by more than 100 scientists, bear experts and advocates, asking for three grizzly cubs to be rehabbed for return to the wild, and for an updated grizzly recovery plan, Alberta government spokesperson Gordon Stenhouse seems unaware of recent studies in grizzly rehabilitation and behaviours. It is evidence that should factor into any decisions regarding individuals of a threatened species.Read More »Grizzly Cubs Should Be Rehabbed

Orphaned Wild Grizzly Cubs Need YOUR HELP NOW!

Orphaned Wild Grizzly Cubs Need YOUR HELP NOW!

Orphaned Wild Grizzly Cubs Need YOUR HELP! And they need it NOW.

Two months ago, on April 28, 2020, a group of scientists, conservationists and business people from Canada and the US, got together in many virtual ways. They had three goals:

    1.  to make sure that the three orphaned wild grizzly cubs, whose mother was killed by hunters in Alberta, were sent into a wildlife rehabilitation centre (in Smithers,B.C.) and then, eventually, be released in Alberta.
    2. To persuade the Alberta government to update the 2016 Alberta Grizzly Bear Recovery Plan
    3. To encourage the Alberta government to licence one or both of their black bear rehabilitation centres for grizzly bears.

The option for the orphaned wild grizzly cubs ? Continue their confinement in the Calgary Zoo until they could be placed in random zoos somewhere in North America for a life of misery in detention. Majestic. Orphaned. Wild. Grizzly. Cubs whose mother was killed by hunters. Relegated to zoos.
