Black Bear, Red Tape

BLACK BEAR RED TAPE documents the story of wildlife rehabilitator Hope Swinnimer as she struggles to get government permission to rescue and rehabilitate black bears, who would otherwise be killed. Though Hope’s volunteer organization helps thousands of animals each year, black bears are a barometer of the forest world. They are adaptable, more willing, and able to live in much closer proximity to people than other big animals. Perhaps more than any other animal they embody the concept of kinship between people and nature. But, despite that, many of the big animals are already gone. With the black bear population pushed to the brink across much of the continent, and human populations pushing into the wilderness, people and black bears are encountering each other more and more often. BLACK BEAR, RED TAPE follows Hope’s climactic battle with bureaucrats to save a baby bear and, with it, the entire black bear population.
