Alberta BearSmart Program
The link above is to the website of the provincial Alberta BearSmart program. This program is being led by government for:
- Keeping people safe
- Helping bear populations survive
- Reducing property damage and costs
Along with partners and Albertans in general, we hope to raise awareness and educate people visiting or living in bear country to stay safe.
Using Public Lands
Approximately 60 per cent of the province's land base is public land. It is managed under an integrated resource management philosophy that supports forest production, watershed protection, wildlife habitat, recreation, oil and gas well sites, agricultural production and industrial development, to mention only a few of the uses.
Public land is divided into two broad land use areas: Green Area and White Area. The Green Area (non-settled) is managed primarily for timber production, but other uses are permitted. Intensive activities involving settlement or agricultural development are restricted because the land base is required for forest production and there is a high cost for providing services such as roads.
