2010 Bear Fact Sheet
4/1/2010
Guide outfitters are the founders of the tourism industry and an important part of the outdoorheritage of British Columbia. Our clients spend more, per day, per capita, than any other visitor to
our province. Guide outfitters are committed to sustainable wildlife management and habitat conservation. They
are stewards of the land who have a profound understanding of the wildlife and its habitat. The big game
populations in BC are healthy and growing due, in part, to science-based wildlife management
policies that were developed by government in cooperation with guide outfitters.
According to the province of British Columba, hunters harvested less than 300 grizzly bears in 2009. Thisrepresents ~1.75% of the estimated grizzly bear population of ~17,000.
