Rainwolf is the last to go

In winter 2018 the Coastal Carnivores photography exhibit showed at the Karen Cooper Gallery (Vancouver), Robert Bateman Centre (Victoria) and the Audain Art Museum Whistler. Now the last piece – Rain Wolf by Cristina Mittermeier has sold – collectively the campaign raised over $30,000 that supported the purchase of the Nadeea hunting tenure and is now contributing to our purchase of the Kitlope tenure. 

You can still get your own momento of this campaign with a limited edition photographic print, with options on our website available for only $98. 

Once again we wish to thank the amazing photographers who contributed photography and their support to the exhibit – April Bencze, Tavish Campbell, Karen Cooper, Colleen Gara, Bertie Gregory, Melissa Groo, Brad Hill, John Marriott, Cristina Mittermeier, Neil Ever Osborne, Eric Sambol, and Andy Wright.

We are now busy raising the remaining funds to meet our $650,000 target for the Kitlope tenure. We’ll soon be updating you as to how close we are to that target and how much we need to raise before our purchase agreement deadline of December 31, 2020. Success means we can permanently extinguish commercial trophy hunting of coastal carnivores in the Kitlope.

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.
