Our Mission

Colorado Bear Coalition’s mission is to create a network of communities across Colorado to preserve the welfare of both bears and people.

We envision a world where black bears thrive in their natural habitat and people take responsible action to reduce human-bear conflict through nonlethal means.

We are a collaborative and strategic collective bringing community groups, residents, city leaders, policymakers, and park and wildlife officials together to reduce human-bear conflicts.

By compassionately discouraging bears from wandering into towns, we keep them wild and keep them safe.
