Poaching, habitat loss and trophy hunting will be the downfall of BC�s grizzly bears, environmentalist Anthony Marr told a small group of people Tuesday night�

 

He frequently compared the grizzly to tigers in India. In the space of a few decades, tiger populations have plummeted from more than 50,000 to virtual extinction. Marr said BC needs to look at the tigers and take steps to prevent a similar catastrophe with the grizzlies.

 

One man in the audience challenged Marr on his statements about hunters� reasons for killing grizzlies. Marr asked the man why he would want to kill a grizzly anyway�
