There is a new moratorium on shooting grizzlies here in BC. This came at a time when there was little hunting of them each year and their numbers were multiplying rapidly all over the Province.
We expect a LOT more bear/hiker/camper problems, not to mention the normal problems of rifle shots during hunting season being the dinner bell for griz. in the area. They don't care if it's an elk, moose, deer or black bear. Those are all grizzly food.
