THE REINTRODUCTION of grizzly bears in California is a proposal by Senator Richardson put forth in Senate Bill 1305, which would require the Department of Fish and Wildlife to develop and make publicly available a roadmap consisting of a scientific assessment based on best available data, and consultation with California Native American tribes.
Assemblymember Heather Hadwick shared serious concerns over the Bill stating it speaks to “restoring ecological function,” but does not fully grapple with the reality of communities coexisting with a large apex predator. Hadwick’s bottom line states, California is not adequately managing the wildlife we already have.
