Grizzly bears sit at the top of the food chain and are listed as Threatened in Alberta. Being “apex” isn’t protection. It’s responsibility—and that responsibility is ours.

One of our goals is to make wildlife conservation accessible and easy to understand for everyone. With knowledge comes informed decision making, and we want to change how wildlife is managed in Canada and beyond.

It’s with heavy hearts that we honor the memory of Nakoda and her cubs, whose tragic loss this year highlights the need for stronger protections for wildlife in our national parks. One key issue is road safety, as collisions with vehicles remain a major threat to grizzly bears and other animals.

Once again, the Alberta government has ignored science and handed over the management of its fur-bearing species, like wolverine, lynx and river otter, to trappers. For more details and to Take Action, please visit www.exposedwildlifeconservancy.org/news/release... #wildlife #conservation
