PAOV — Nova Scotia has a no-rehabilitation policy for orphaned black bear cubs- when orphaned cubs are found, they are euthanized. After a black bear cub was taken from their care and killed last summer, Hope for Wildlife (a wildlife sanctuary in Nova Scotia), submitted a proposal to the provincial government to rehabilitate black bear cubs. Last week, the government rejected their proposal. If you think orphaned black bear cubs should be rehabilitated not killed, sign now.
Allow wildlife rehabilitation of bear cubs in Nova Scotia
10,100 have signed Tressie Dutchyn’s petition. Let’s get... to 15,000!
Sign now with a clickNova Scotia has denied a wildlife sanctuary’s request to be allowed to care for orphaned black bear cubs and then release them back into the wild. Instead. The Department of Lands and Forestry euthanizes bear cubs that are orphaned or injured.
Research from across Canada shows that black bear cubs can be safely rehabilitated and released without posing a threat to the public. Hope for Wildlife in Nova Scotia has rehabiliated and successfully released thousands of animals over the years. They have the expertise, knowledge and space to rehabilitate black bear cubs and should be granted permission and support by the Department of Forestry in Nova Scotia.
Let’s not see another baby black bear cub killed needlessly when there is a skilled wild life rehabilitator ready and willing to care for the orphaned cubs and release them back into the wild with the skills they will need to live out their lives naturally in the wild without posing a threat to the public.
