About Ursus
Ursus International Conservation Institute is a Canadian registered non-profit organisation and consultancy,that is dedicated to the conservation of bears and their habitat. Ursus seeks to assist in creating a sympathetic and informed attitude towards bears, that is based on an understanding of the critical situations facing their populations. Ursus also has 501(c)3 coverage in the US.
Ursus International operates on the principal that bear conservation is synonymous with whole-ecosystem conservation. Ensuring that the range and food requirements of bears are met ensures that their populations remain viable and that the populations of species in the food chain below the bear are also healthy. Ursus' primary conservation tool is education, equipping individuals, communities and industry with information and skills that reduce conflict between bears and people, and promote coexistence.
