bears throughout the world.
We seek to achieve this by:

projects. |

Preservation and reservation of areas of natural habitat with the aim of
conserving bio-diversity. |
|
|
Encouraging harmonious and respectful animal-human relationships by
facilitating profitable and sustainable alternatives to the illegal wildlife
trade. |
|
|
Empowering indigenous people and communities through training initiatives
which enable indigenous communities to support themselves in a sustainable
manner through responsible custodianship of the bear and its environment. |
|
|
Providing information, fostering awareness, and facilitating education with
regard to threats facing the global bear population. |
|
|
Providing international support and sponsorship for individuals involved with
