BEAR SHEPHERDING
The Wind River Bear Institute in Montana trains and works with Karelian bear dogs to help teach bears in Glacier and other areas to avoid humans. They call this bear shepherding. The purpose is to make wilderness areas where people and bears cross paths safe for humans. In the long term, this is also best for the bears. By using dogs, voice commands, and at times rubber bullets or firecrackers, institute members teach the bears that humans are a nuisance and should be avoided. The bears are taught to leave an area only when humans are around; they can return to feed later. Karelian bear dogs have been used since 1996 in wilderness areas in hundreds of situations. No dogs, humans, or bears have been hurt in the process.
