Bear Creek Council
About this Organization
WOLVES: BCC continues to lobby MTFWP Commissioners for reduced wolf-hunt quotas along the Montana-Yellowstone National Park borders, and lobbies MTFWP and the legislature to change the way wolves are managed in Montana to a region-by-region plan. One of our members served on the MTFWP Finding Common Ground committee. BCC provided educational talks for conservation organizations. Along with MTFWP and conservation organizations, BCC contributed to a wolf curriculum for high school students and established the Living with Wolves program.
BEARS: BCC established Bear Aware Gardiner which since 2009 provided one free bear-resistant garbage can to any Gardiner or Jardine resident who needs one.
BISON: BCC works with the Interagency Bison Management Partners for the common goal of maintaining a wild, free-ranging bison population. BCC works with an IBMP sub-committee on carcass mitigation resulting from hunting in the Gardiner Basin. BCC published public service announcements about the bison hunt in Gardiner area.
LIVING WITH WILDLIFE: BCC hosts webinars on living with wildlife in Montana. The webinars offer resources and safety tips for living with wolves, cougar
