The Japan Bear Network: Overview

The Japan Bear Network (JBN) is a membership-based organization created with the objective of carrying out the activities, research, discussion and exchange of information necessary to promote the co-existence of people and bears in Japan.

On an international level as well, living conditions for bears are said to be worsening; but at the same time, the expansion of the living environment of humans has resulted in continuing friction between people and bears. JBN is an organization in which people from all walks of life?not only bear “experts” (researchers, hunters, conservationists, etc.) but also experts in a wide variety of fields (hunting culture, burial culture, etc.) as well as students, people from the general public, nature conservation groups, and people involved in the mass media, literary professions, and local and national governments?can participate, and share information about bears.
