Overall Goals
The goal of our research is to demonstrate that people can live closely and peacefully with grizzly bears while sustaining their respect indefinitely. Sadly, wilderness throughout the world is disappearing and along with it the grizzly because man has not learned how to share the land with them.
Historically, man's lack of understanding and fear of bears has never allowed for a concept of sharing. Bear managers have maintained that people and bears must be kept separate to ensure safety for humans. We believe there is another alternative and hope to prove it. We also wish to work with our Russian partners to bring about a long-term sustainable conservation for South Kamchatka.

2000 Sponsors
Maureen Enns and Charles Russell wish to extend special thanks to all the sponsors and contributors to their research for the year 2000. Without these significant contributions, their return to Kamchatka this year would not have been possible. Thank you all for your part in bringing about an enlightened understanding about bears with your generous support.
