B.C. bans trophy hunting for Grizzly bears, total ban in Great Bear Rainforest [View all]

Killing grizzly bears for trophy will come to an end in British Columbia, but not before hunters get one more shot this season.

Natural Resource Operations Minister Doug Donaldson said the province is moving to ban trophy hunting for grizzly bears and will complete ban the hunt of grizzlies in the Great Bear Rainforest as of Nov. 30.

But the current season that begins in some parts of the province this week is set to go ahead, Donaldson said, because hunting permits were already issued months ago.
