The Andean Bear Conservation Project is a project of the Andean Bear Foundation, and is based in Ecuador. Our goal is to save the Andean Bear, Tremarctos ornatus, from extinction through in-field scientific studies and through the rehabilitation and release of captive bears. We monitor both wild and rehabilitated bears, directly and with radio tracking equipment. Our aim is to improve human understanding of these gentle creatures by gathering data on their diet, behaviours and social interaction.
