The disappearance of the great North American wilderness is followed by the disappearance of the grizzly bear - he needs them to survive as much as they need him, and both are sensitive to human interference.
Location of the nature reserve
Since 2012, Wilderness Internationals has been protecting forest in the Toba Valley, nestled within the coastal mountains of Western Canada, 160 kilometers north of Vancouver. Our vision for the Toba Valley is to create a protected grizzly bear corridor, starting with over 50 hectares of “grizzly land”.
A refuge for grizzly bears
They still exist in the wilderness of the Toba Valley: a healthy grizzly population. As there is plenty to eat, a mother can give birth to 3-4 cubs in a year. The diverse vegetation of the river courses is on the table, and in late summer and fall the bears can gorge themselves on thousands of salmon for the winter. The root cavities of ancient giant trees are essential for their six-month hibernation, which can only be created by undisturbed natural processes.
