Protecting the Great Bears: Don’t miss it
The Ethics, Ecology and Economics of Grizzly Conservation
Raincoast and its supporters have acquired the commercial trophy hunting rights in over 28,000 km2 of BC’s Great Bear Rainforest. Our long-term goal has been to secure this entire coastal region. We now stand poised to complete the job.
Join us for an exclusive photo essay by renowned nature photographer Brad Hill, and a discussion with Raincoast’s Brian Falconer on securing the remaining hunting tenures.
This compelling conservation initiative would protect coastal grizzly bears and other large carnivores throughout the entire Great Bear Rainforest.

You can help
Raincoast’s in-house scientists, collaborating graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and professors make us unique among conservation groups. We work with First Nations, academic institutions, government, and other NGOs to build support and inform decisions that protect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, and the wildlife that depend on them. We conduct ethically applied, process-oriented, and hypothesis-driven research that has immediate and relevant utility for conservation deliberations and the collective body of scientific knowledge.
We investigate to understand coastal species and processes. We inform by bringing science to decision-makers and communities. We inspire action to protect wildlife and wildlife habitats.
