Lethal control of bears might be justified under certain circumstances, must be based on sound science and adhere to legally binding obligations. Bear management in Slovakia is not meeting these criteria. Here a shocking video, action of Slovakian Bear Intervention Team september

#Otters are used to rub and roll on the grass, ground and rocks, often in locations associated with #spraint marking. This type of rubbing may function in grooming, #scent marking or both, as it is the case of brown bears. #Cantabrian Mountains, these days, our behavioural study

New feature documentary film "Bears in our Backyards." Hundreds of Black Bears are being killed by governments in Western Canada every year. But more and more citizens are educating themselves about how to successfully coexist with Black Bears

In the #CantabrianMountains, it is not only the time for #brownbear females with cubs to emerge from their reproductive dens, but also the #mating season. Here are some interactions between one male and two females @IBAbearbiology @BearTrust @mncn_csic @_IMIB_
