Photo by @iantmcallister // Happy #WolfWednesday! Next to that of primates, the social structure of a wolf family is one of the most complex and evolved in the animal world. Each pack is led by one male and one female. The wolves found here in Canada’s coastal rainforests are one of the last populations that shed light on the complex family dynamics of these apex predators. This is because they’re also one of the last wolf populations that hasn’t been affected in a big way by human contact. ⁣

Photos by @iantmcallister // Happy #PrideMonth! This June, we'd like to celebrate the beautifully diverse 2SLGBTQ+ community who make this planet more vibrant and loving. To achieve our mission and ensure wildlife and wild spaces thrive in a rapidly changing world, we believe we must all work together. Diversity and inclusion in the environmental movement is a tremendous strength. We’d like to take the opportunity to thank all the 2SLGBTQ+ members of our support-base as well as those working as conservationists, activists, and scientists who help move us forward. Be proud of who you are each and every day 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️⁣

Photo by @iantmcallister // Happy #MarineMonday! We wanted to share a quick update on the G7 summit which took place last week. Leaders met and discussed their commitment to protect 30% of the Ocean by 2023 — a figure inline with Canada’s national target. Also discussed was the urgent action required from member States to protect, conserve and restore ecosystems, promote better global ocean governance, and foster more sustainable fisheries management by prohibiting harmful fishing activities. Accelerated action to tackle marine litter, specifically the retrieval of discarded fishing gear, removal of marine plastics and micro plastics were all top priorities on the agenda. ⁣
⁣
Here on Canada’s Pacific coast, we feel the impacts of issues like these every day. As Canada continues down the critical path of establishing more Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) to combat this, @fisheriesoceanscan must be held accountable. These protected zones must be designed according to internationally accepted standards that are rigorous enough to ensure oil and gas extraction, unsustainable fisheries, and other harmful human industrial activities are not allowed. MPAs must be true sanctuaries that support ocean health, resilience, and recovery. We look forward to sharing more info on marine protection targets locally in the coming weeks and months.⁣

Photo by @takayalonewolf // Pacific Wild is grateful for Cheryl Alexander’s research, film and advocacy work to ensure the life of Takaya—a sea wolf who lived alone off of B.C.’s capital city, Victoria, for seven years —creates a legacy of change for all wolves hunted and persecuted throughout the province. The story of Takaya, unique in his solitude and ability to survive on a group of small islands with limited prey, has ignited public interest in B.C. wolves across the world. His untimely and unfortunate death continues to resonate with British Columbians, who want to see an end to trophy hunting of wolves.⁣
⁣
We recently sent a letter to government supporting a resolution calling for a moratorium on recreational wolf hunting, adopted by Oak Bay council and a growing number of Vancouver Island municipalities and ENGOs. It will be presented to all municipalities for adoption at this fall’s UCBM (Union of B.C. Municipalities) Convention in September.⁣
⁣
The response to our letter from the B.C. government could have been written 50 years ago (visit the link in our bio to read the full response). The B.C. government believes that their wolf management policies are science-based, yet cannot provide any peer-reviewed science papers to support its decisions. Wolves are still being managed as a ‘resource’, without accountability and oversight. ⁣
⁣
We applaud Cheryl’s tireless efforts, and her ability to bring people and organizations together in this work towards a common goal of establishing wildlife management practices that are aligned with societal values that increasingly recognize wolves as highly social and intelligent animals that provide critical ecosystem function in this province. ⁣
