SUMMARY:VANCOUVER - North Shore Black Bears
DESCRIPTION:Learning about North Shore Black Bears \nOn this (rescheduled) Explorer Day we’ll go to Rice Lake in North Vancouver with guides Luci and Danielle from the North Shore Black Bear Society. Our guides will teach us about bear biology\, behaviour\, seasonal habits\, and what bears like to eat. We’ll also learn to be bear detectives so we can tell if bears have been using the area. Most importantly\, we’ll learn about best practices for living and playing in bear country and what to do if you encounter a bear.\n \nWe will be walking on forest trails so dress for the weather and wear sturdy shoes that you don’t mind getting a bit wet. This Explorer Day will be limited to 20 people so we ask that only 1 parent attend to allow for more families to join. \n Please RSVP here. \nFor more information about all the great work the North Shore Black Bear Society is doing to protect black bears\, see https://northshorebears.com/home. \nSafety! Luci is certified in bear safety and awareness with the Commercial Bear Viewing Association. Our group will use our voices to let all the wildlife know that humans are in the area\, so we won’t be surprising any bears. Luci will also be carrying bear spray\, although it is extremely unlikely this will be needed.   \nMeeting Location\nWe will meet at the Rice Lake Gate Picnic Area which is at the Lower Seymour Conservation Area\, 2369 Lillooet Rd\, North Vancouver. From Vancouver\, take the Second Narrows Bridge\, turn right on Mountain Highway and head up the hill\, then turn right at Lynn Valley Road followed by another right at Peters Road. Follow signs to the parking lot. There is plenty of parking as well as bathrooms at the Lower Seymour Conservation Area. \nSee attached map for location & directions from Lions Gate Bridge and Second Narrows Bridge.\n\nFor public transit\, the 229 bus from Phibbs Exchange in North Vancouver will drop you off at the park. Check translink.ca for details. \nCOVID-19\nMasks are optional and preferred for adults and children 6 years and older. Please do not register for this event if you or anyone in your family bubble has symptoms of COVID-19 such as coughing\, fever\, vomiting\, diarrhea\, loss of taste/smell\, or if you have been in contact with someone who has such symptoms or tested positive. \nThank you to Tony Joyce for this beautiful bear image.
