Show Notes:
Grizzly bears are designated as "vulnerable" by the province and "a species of special concern" by the federal government. Despite this, trophy hunters can enter a lottery to be allowed to hunt them. in 2007, a record 430 grizzlies were killed, the majority of them by hunters. We speak with Chris Genovali of Raincoast Conservation.
