The Humane Society Institute for Science & Policy presents Living Large: Wolves, Bears, Cougars and Humans in North America , October 12-14, 2015 The Kellogg Conference Center at Gallaudet University, Washington, DC



  North America’s large carnivores – black and brown bears, cougars and wolves – declined dramatically following European colonization, largely due to human persecution. Rising ethical concern for animals, along with a growing understanding of the integral ecological role of apex carnivores, has been shifting wildlife management strategies from extirpation toward protection and
 recovery.







 This conference seeks to foreground the best ideas from animal welfare, conservation biology, public policy, conflict resolution, law, and other disciplines in the interests of securing the future of these iconic creatures.
