Kondelis stepped up to the challenge of looking after bears. He said, “Myself and a good friend are dyed-in-the-wool bear hunters that just loved the sport and loved the species. We noticed a lack of concern for bears and bear hunting. We felt not a lot of states were worried about their bear populations, not a lot of the organizations out there focusing on the right to bear hunt and ensuring there's a future for bear hunting on the landscape. We're in existence because we're seeing a lot of headwinds coming against bears, bear hunting, and specifically predator hunting.”Check out The Western Bear Foundation, focused on protecting bears, bear habitat, and the privilege of bear hunting. https://www.westernbearfoundation.org Kondelis said, “We want to be a double-edged sword; one end of our spectrum is going to be conservation-based. In areas where we have large grizzly populations or large black bear populations, we want to reduce conflict to ensure that we keep as many bears on the landscape as possible. And that's for both hunters and non-hunters. Bears are our big focus, and we want to ensure we're doing our part as human beings to reduce conflict. So that's a big part of it, research and further education. We're doing some black bear population studies. The conservation piece is a big part of what we've done, probably more so in the last five years, just because we haven't seen a lot of attacks on hunting. 

There is a lot of concern in regards to the bear hunting world right now. Especially in a few specific states. If you're a bear hunter or plan to be one, you need to listen to this podcast. Joe, with the Western Bear Foundation, and I sit down and share the political attack on bear hunting that are taking place. https://www.westernbearfoundation.org/   https://www.ehuntr.com/   https://www.vortexoptics.com/  

In Episode 234 of District of Conservation, Gabriella speaks with Washington State-based bear hunter & The Ultimate Guide to Black Bear Hunting author Douglas Boze and Western Bear Foundation president Joe Kondelis about the fallout from the cancellation of the spring 2022 black bear hunt. Plus, the politicization of wildlife management and how the incremental efforts to ban bear hunts could result in limited hunting opportunities, small or big game, in your state going forward.

The California black bear series continues (part 3 of 6)! I got to sit down and talk with Joe Kondelis of the Western Bear Foundation. For nearly 15 years Western Bear Foundation has been an active conservation org working to preserve, protect and support healthy black bear populations and the opportunity to hunt them. They're close to the issues of human/bear conflict, and the impacts that are taking place as unhunted apex predators (G-bears) expand their habit and exceed population targets. Joe has committed much of his life's work to being passionate about black bears and the issues that relate to their success on the landscape, and our opportunity to hunt them.   Joe's experience with Western Bear Foundation connects to many of the lessons we can learn and apply here in the state of California as the hunting community comes together to become the thought, science and policy leader for issues that impact wildlife populations and hunting opportunity.  Check out Western Bear Foundation and for just $30 join the roster of supporters as success in their mission will ultimately help CA black bear populations and hunting.  https://www.westernbearfoundation.org/  https://www.instagram.com/westernbearfoundation     California hunting, deer hunting, bear hunting, black bear, mule deer, blacktail deer, blackbear, backcountry hunting, habitat management, backpack hunting, bow hunting, archery, conservation, wildlife management

Joe Kondelis of Western Bear Foundation is BACK on the podcast to talk about what's happening with the grizzly bears in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE)—which comprises portions of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. When we first spoke to Joe last year, Judge Christensen ruled that a tentative fall 2019 managed grizzly bear hunt in the region couldn't take place on the grounds that wildlife biologists allegedly "misled" the public on the recovery status of GYE grizzly bears, despite delisting even being endorsed by the Obama administration—a position that has continued in the Trump administration today. In Episode 52, Joe discusses: The implications of that Montana judge re-listing the fully recovered GYE grizzly bears Why there are so many human-bear conflicts in the region lately What could have been had the managed hunt gone through Why legal hunters aren't out to kill grizzlies or bears, in general Lethal and non-lethal ways to mitigate human-bear conflicts How hunters can reconcile their love of bears with management practices How to achieve more harmony with bears without sacrificing livelihoods And ways listeners can support and get involved with the Western Bear Foundation FInd District of Conservation at these major podcast portals: Apple: http://bit.ly/DistrictOfConservation iHeart Radio: https://ihr.fm/2nblcsx Spotify: https://spoti.fi/33aVUdq ### SHOW NOTES: USFWS Had to Relist GYE Grizzlies: https://elknetwork.com/grizzly-bears-officially-relisted/ Western Bear Foundation Website: https://www.westernbearfoundation.org/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/westernbearfoundation/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/westernbearfoundation/?hl=en Joe's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joekondelis/?hl=en
