Whistler Museum Exhibition Explores Historical Bear Coexistence

The Whistler Museum is presenting an exhibition that examines the historical relationship between humans and bears in the Whistler area. The show features archival photographs, including a 1965 image of bears at a garbage dump that later became Whistler Village. The exhibition incorporates a quote from Sylvia Dolson advocating for animal welfare and emphasizes the responsibility to protect wildlife. This presentation contributes to contemporary discussions about environmental art and human-animal interactions.
