One Shot for Coastal Carnivores is a collection of photographs to help safeguard coastal carnivores

In support of our efforts, with Coastal First Nations, to permanently end commercial trophy hunting of all large carnivores on the coast of British Columbia, Raincoast curated a unique collection of art called One shot for Coastal Carnivores.

Each donated piece tells a story of the importance of protecting coastal carnivores. Large prints have been  auctioned online and exhibited in Vancouver, Victoria and Whistler. You can still purchase select prints in our online store with all the proceeds going towards our Safeguarding Coastal Carnivores Campaign.

We showed the One Shot for Coastal Carnivores exhibition at the Audain Art Museum and the Robert Bateman Centre in 2018.

Conservation updates

Weakening SARA’s “jeopardy clause” would directly jeopardize Canada’s endangered wildlife

This decision could push species already struggling into extinction. You can help stop it.

Conservation updates

Canada’s Species at Risk Act is, itself, at risk

Action alert: It’s not just endangered species being undermined by federal fast tracking of major projects, it’s also the SARA legislation that protects them.

Scientific literature

Study: Toxic hydrocarbon hotspots in BC coastal sediments, threatening Southern Resident killer whales and Chinook salmon

Burgeoning marine traffic to bring more toxic hydrocarbons to killer whale habitats.

Raincoast updates

Give killer whales a voice…for years to come

What it takes to power conservation that lasts.

Notes from the field

To restore salmon habitat, one must act like the beaver

Rebuilding riparian habitat, one stick at a time.
