Here on east side of Vancouver island north of Campbell river the grizzly is now being seen where it has not been seen before several have been shot on the island port hardy,port mc neil.
loggers chased by the big bear... across the water to the mainland Glendale cove,and the inlets knight,butte,apple river have been prime grizz territory and have produced many trophy bears.......... grizz on the island is BAD for TOURISM so ,I believe local authorities try to keep reports of sightings and encounters hush-hush!!!!!
