Den supplementation for black bears in coastal British Columbia
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 46, Issue 5, December 2022., 2022 Attempts were made to create dens for black bears in an area with extensive forest harvesting that removed dens in hollow trees. Bears utilized an augmented old growth stump as a den but did not utilize artificial dens made of plastic. Abstract American black bears (Ursus americanus) require suitable den sites that provide security and cover to ...
