Touching Spirit Bear
Spirit Bears (Ursus americanus kermodei) are a unique colouration of the costal British Columbian black bear subspecies known as the Kermode bear. The Tsimshian First Nations refer to them as moksgm'ol (white bear). These striking creatures play an important role in local Kitasoo / Xai'xais culture and increasingly in Indigenous-led tourism. This form of responsible tourism also teaches how to leave minimal impact on the places we visit.

The Significance Of Spirit Bear
An Everlasting Legend

The Kermode Bear, otherwise known as Spirit Bear, lives in the rain forests of central British Columbia and is the official mammal of the province. The Great Bear Rainforest spans 6.4m-hectares and is a mix of coastal rainforest and shoreline. As one of the rarest animals in the world, it is estimated that there are currently 400 - 1,200 individuals. While their habits are similar to their black counterparts, Kermode bears are adept at catching fish because they blend into the daylight. Unfortunately, up to 50 percent of their habitat is currently threatened by oil development, logging operations and climate change. These impressive survivors are at risk.
It is hoped that the Kermode bear will continue to make history as the mascot for protection of the rainforests in BC.
