The MARTINZ Critical Review - Ep#3 - British Columbia's Salmon are facing imminent extinction due to exploitive open-pen farming - with Dr Alexandra Morton champion of wild salmon
In this alarming episode Dr. Alexandra Morton provides us with a clear warning of the imminent extinction of our beloved pacific salmon if immediate action is not taken to remove open-pen fish farms from our coastal water ways. Dr. Morton has dedicated her life to the research and understanding of our complex and interconnected coastal ecosystems. She has clearly documented the serious deleterious effects of the fish farms, in particular the devastating effects that sea lice have on out-migrating juvenile salmon. I encourage everyone to support her research and voice in protecting this precious resource. Please take a moment to v...

The Science That Shows Government Wildlife Management Is Unscientific
We've all heard the phrase Wildlife management should be science-based.

But is wildlife management in North America actually science-based?

Episode 405: Challenging Cougar Conflict Misconceptions
Cougars are persecuted for the typical reasons: they're large carnivores that, when they come into conflict with people or places people live, can do significant damage. Add on the instinctual fear we have of large predators, the media's love of sensationalizing stories about wildlife, and it all starts to make sense. But one study is challenging the way we should be looking at cougar-related conflict. Dr. Chris Darimont, Hakai-Raincoast professor at University of Victoria, science director for Raincoast Conservation, and research scholar for the Hakai Institute, coauthored a study that looked at 30 years of cougar...

Episode 322: Cause & Effect of Conflict
We know that grizzly bears love fish. We know that grizzly bears can come into conflict with people and infrastructure. And now, thanks to researchers at Raincoast Conservation Foundation, we know how those two facts are tied together. Earlier this month, Raincoast published their study, Ecology of conflict: Marine food supply affects human-wildlife interactions on land, in the journal Scientific Reports. By examining over three decades of conflict-killed grizzly reports, the researchers determined that food availability was the greatest cause of conflict – and that other factors such as hunting or population changes played a much less significant ro...

In the animal kingdom, the power of fear is something no one would question. Fear can impact and control entire populations, affect whole ecosystems, and even change the path of evolution. But is it something we can measure – and once and for all, prove that the role of predators is more than just what they eat? A new study from Raincoast Conservation Foundation does just that. Led by Raincoast’s ecologist and PhD student Justin Suraci, the team of scientists showed through experiments that the mere presence of predators can impact the behaviour of mesopredators and other spec...
