As a society, Russell says he would like to change how we interact with these animals and how we manage things like garbage to keep bears on the landscape. My idea is that we can live with any number of bears, but not many people agree with me, he said on Sunday (April 14) during an interview with
The Question. They say no, we ve got enough now, we ve got to open the hunting season or kill more, and it is totally foreign idea even though I was raised in a hunting family.
Russell grew up on his family s ranch near Pincher Creek, Alta., near Waterton National Park, home to many bears. The ranch has been in his family for 107 years and he says he has always been destined to take it over as his two brothers both became biologists, one studying bears and the other caribou.
