In the Great Bear Rainforest huge coastal mountains plunge into the ocean covered with ancient temperate rain forest, and teeming with widlife. The Raincoast Conservation Foundation is dedicated to protecting the Pacific coast of British Columbia. Interaction with bears in the wild has shifted from defensive strategies (bear bangers and shotguns) to respectful interaction. When the moratorium on bear trophy hunting was rescinded, the organization decided to save grizzly bears by purchasing hunting territory and attracting tourists who shoot only with cameras!
