Wildlife Conflict Solutions
We strive to support people living with wildlife by educating and engaging citizens in conflict reduction strategies and attractant management programs. We offer assessments and can help plan and implement critical communication and outreach plans to help make communities safe for people and wildlife.
Our staff has expertise, as well as international awards for our work with communities dealing with the challenges of living with large carnivores. We can help you set up a BearSmart or Wildlife Smart program and provide consultation on how to create a long-term, sustainable program in your town or city.

I have been a research scientist studying conservation and implementing management of grizzly bears for the past 20 years. The real challenge in coexisting with grizzly bears is managing people. To do that we need to understand how to live, work, and behave in bear country, and then get ourselves to actually integrate these principles into our daily lives. No one understands this and knows how to make this happen better than Kim Titchener. Her innovative WildSmart program actually reaches people in ways that connect and has proven very successful.
