Full Bio: Chelsea Greer is an emerging conservation scientist with an interest in animal ethics and coexistence. She

holds a MSc in Geography from the University of Calgary and a BSc in Applied Animal Biology from the

University of British Columbia. 

 

Chelsea currently works with Raincoast Conservation Foundation - a

non-profit organization made up of a team of conservationists and scientists empowered by our research

to protect the lands, waters, and wildlife of coastal British Columbia. 

 

Chelsea joined the Raincoast team in 2021 to help develop the Wolf Conservation Program and continues to coordinate and deliver the

program’s various initiatives. Raincoast’s wolf initiatives are working toward implementation of

provincial policy that respects the welfare of wolves and their ecological role. This includes putting an

end to the killing of wolves in BC for the purposes of predator control, trophy, and perceived competition

for shared prey. 

 

Raincoast is currently raising funds to stop commercial trophy hunting in more than a

quarter of the Great Bear Rainforest in BC. Purchasing the Southern Great Bear Rainforest Tenure, which

covers 18,239 km2, protects wolves and dozens of other species from being commercially trophy hunted

because it gives Raincoast the exclusive rights to commercially guide trophy hunters. Raincoast currently

controls the commercial hunting rights in five tenures, more than 38,000 km2 of the BC coast – an area

larger than Vancouver Island or the entire country of Belgium.
