Please sign and share our new petition linked below to save Florida's black bears. Stay tuned for updates and calls to action. Click here now to sign and share our NEW petition.

House Bill 87 (HB 87) - Taking of Bears, and Senate Bill 632 (SB 632) - Taking of Bears, which would enable a person to kill a Florida Black Bear because they "feel" threatened. These bills open the door for people to claim self-defense in instances where bears are not a threat. They override the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission's (FWC) authority to investigate crimes committed against this protected species (black bears) if the person claims they felt threatened.
