SPIRIT  BEAR








                                                                     PROTECTION OF  HABITAT
                                             Princess Royal Island has a 10,000 year old forest, which is
                                                                                      home to this very rare
                                                  Canadian Kermode bear. On 4th. April 2001, a very remarkable
                                                                                              event took place.
                                                      The provincial government announced the ban on logging in
                                                                               the entire Great Bear Rainforest.
                                                      All sides have agreed to this new plan. This area will be protected,
                                                                                   which includes the habitat
                                                      of the Spirit Bear. I want to help in my own way. I will be donating
                                                                                        open edition prints for
                                                        the protection of the 'Spirit Bear".    I wish to help in creating a
                                                                                              sanctuary on
                                                     Princess Royal Island, where all wildlife, including the Spirit Bear
                                                                                    are able to run free as they
                                                     have done for thousands of years and evolve with no interference
                                                                                    from mankind. The isolation
                                                    of this  location together with the rugged landscape makes this
                                                                                dream achievable. It would be the
                                                   only place on earth which would be out of bounds for ALL mankind.

UPDATE
the moratorium has been extended
