Led by the Foothills Research Institute, the pilot project targets two key regions, including the Rockies west of Edmonton, aiming to track population trends and habitat use. Experts like Andrea Morehouse welcome the effort but stress its scale and resource demands. While the province claims a healthy rise from 800 to over 1,100 bears since 2010, uncertainty remains—some fear increased human encounters stem from habitat loss, not just population growth. Though limited culling is permitted for habituated bears, hunting isn’t being expanded despite rural pressure. Accurate data is vital to assess recovery progress, guide policy, and protect both bears and people. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
