My
vision
by
Judi Wild
" I have
a vision, which is becoming increasingly clearer to me as time goes by.
I feel
that there is no better time than now to seek the
help &
guidance from others who may share the same vision."
__________________________________________________________________
I envision:
an
International
Wildife Sanctuary which will encompass the entire land mass of Princess
Royal Island plus surrounding waters and air-space.
The legendary "Spirit Bear" together with the "Ravens
Decree"
would become the main "theme" of the Sanctuary, but would include all the
wildlife
species
indigenous to the Island & surrounding waters.
I envision:
this
Sanctuary would be totally & completely off-limits to all mankind -
except for a bi-annual
monitoring excursion comprised of a carefully chosen small group of scientists
& photographers.
I envision:
totally
encasedviewing platforms & walkways - carefully placed so as
not to disturb the natural
environment.
This would ensure that the animals would continue to roam freely for another
I envision:
the
Sanctuary would be protected by one or more caretakers based at King Pacific
Lodge. A float
plane
can schedule a daily trip around the entire Island scouting for intruders
& poachers.
I envision:
my
"Spirit Bear" prints will be one of many on-going fundraisers and many
more major international
sponsors
will be recruited. Recognition will be given where deserved
- including all the levels of
Government,
our First Nations, the environmentalists and the Logging Companies. A volunteer
elected
committee
will oversee all the business matters & the smooth running of the Sanctuary.

"I do hope you share my vision & enthusiasm.
This
is a very unique situation - we have an uninhabited Island
in
the temperate rainforest (almost untouched by mankind)
with
wild animals, including a very rare totally Canadian Kermode bear,
roaming
about freely, as they have done for thousands of years. What a
priceless international treasure well worth
protecting
for future generations to come
