The main theme of the conference is the relationship between the brown bear and humans. As a warm up, the conference begins with a scientific presentation on new findings relating to the evolutionary development of the brown bear. The conference lectures will focus on «the brown bear in human care» and «the brown bear in the wild». The presentations relate to the following themes: - Evolution, ecology and behavioural biology of brown bears - Contemporary bear keeping - Veterinary medical aspects of bear keeping - Reintroduction into the wild/ rearing of orphaned bears - The coexistence of humans and wild bears. ...

The proposed theme of the Conference will be “Bears and humans in the 21st century: challenges and solutions for a peaceful coexistence”. With this theme we aim to draw attention to the problems bears are facing in Greece, and hopefully garner public interest and support for their effective solution. The Conference theme is also representative of one of the major challenges for bears around the world: in midst of an enduring global financial crisis, national economies are reshaping and restructuring themselves in order to become more competitive and resilient in the new world of the 21st century. These structural changes have significant effects on the conservation of global biodiversity, including bears. From the effects of global warming on polar bears to the problems arising from bears living in the proximity of humans in Europe and North America, all bear species are affected by the new realities of the 21st century. Identifying these conflicts in a world that is changing rapidly will be the major step towards finding the solutions that will ultimately secure the survival of these species on a world-wide scale. The 23rd International Conference on Bear Research and Management aims to be a forerunner in this process by providing a meeting point and becoming the public outlet for the most experienced specialists in the field of bear research, conservation and management. ...

The purpose of the Eastern Black Bear Workshop is to bring together state/provincial biologists, federal biologists, and university researchers with responsibilities for managing black bear populations in the eastern USA and Canada to discuss issues important to the management, conservation, and perpetuation of those black bear populations. EBBWs are inherently different from general conferences. Whereas conferences have the purpose of sharing information through the presentation of research and management papers, EBBWs are designed not only to share information, but more specifically to discuss and find solutions to problems of managing bear populations at the regional level. ...

Three anniversaries to be celebrated in 2015 – 15 years since the first wolves’ return to German, 10 years of NABU’s “Welcome Wolf!” campaign and 5 years of training NABU “wolf ambassadors” provide the backdrop for an international conference on wolf-related topics. The conference will be hosted in the city of Wolfsburg (Lower-Saxony) from September 24-26, 2015. The focus will be on the potential conflicts arising from human beings and wolves sharing overlapping territories in a densely populated country. The conference will follow two major themes that provide the basis for NABU’s work in this field: First, the human dimensions of wildlife management – dealing with attitudes, emotions and fear as the basis for the acceptance of (carnivorous) wildlife. Second, the exchange of management practices that make the daily life with wolves easier – especially for other land users – and reduce the potential for conflict. In order to accommodate theses topics, the conference will be organized in two separate, full-day modules. In addition, a full-day field trip into the Northern German wolf territories. We are looking forward to welcoming participants from academia, practitioners and the interested public to discuss strategies and potential implications for wolf management in Germany. ...

Der Bund für Umwelt und Naturschutz Deutschland e.V. (BUND) engagiert sich seit Jahren für die bedrohte Wildkatze Felis s. silvestris und ihren Lebensraum, die naturnahen Wälder und strukturreichen Heckenlandschaften. Um die scheuen Tiere effektiv schützen zu können, werden ausreichend Nachweise über ihre Verbreitung in Deutschland und ihre genetische Vielfalt benötigt. Im Rahmen des vom Bundesamt für Naturschutz mit Mitteln des Förderprogramms Biologische Vielfalt geförderten Projekts „Wildkatzensprung“ sammelt der BUND daher seit 2012 bundesweit Haarproben der Wildkatze. Diese werden vom Forschungsinstitut Senckenberg im Labor genetisch analysiert.Daraus ist Deutschlands erste Wildkatzen-Genotypen-Datenbank entstanden. In sie werden in den nächsten Jahren weitere Proben einfließen, um die wissenschaftlichen Ergebnisse des Monitorings verfeinern zu können.Gäste dieser Internetseite erhalten in den für jeden zugänglichen Menüpunkten PROJEKT und KARTE näheres zur deutschlandweiten genetischen Inventur von Wildkatzenpopulationen. ...

The city of Quito is honored to host the 25th Internacional IBA Conference “New frontiers for bear research and conservation in the tropics”. This event, in addition of bringing together the scientific and conservation community that investigate and are focused on the eight species of bears in the world, with special interest on the ones that live in the tropics, will also be held in South America for the first time. This fact provides an excellent opportunity for students, researchers and conservationists of the 8 bears species to share their work, efforts and experiences. The conference is divided in different sessions, including a special one in Spanish about the Andean Bear; with simultaneous translation. Participants can expose their work in two ways: oral and posters. The conference will also offer different workshops on topics that are of current interest. ... [Information of the supplier]
