There is considerable interest in relocating grizzly bears to California. Several environmental groups as well as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have made considerable efforts toward this end with estimates that California would be suitable habitat for some five hundred grizzly bears. How did they come up with that figure, and where do they believe these animals will live? The reality might be a little bit of a shock for some people, maybe even the very nature groups themselves. Take a look at the pictures above, one is a Grizzly bear the other a isn't, which one is which? It is even possible that we already have Grizzly bears here in California. For or against, here is an overview of the issues and proposals and the dynamic issues you probably had no idea about concerning this highly intelligent species.

The history of the West from the Natives perspective and the world wide forces affecting them are rarely found in our history books. for the tribes in the West the history before the 1840's is poorly understood and when taken out of context seems to make no sense to the casual reader. In particular the history of the Natives in Northern California seems to be completely overlooked. These people had a turbulent history prior to the Gold Rush of 1849 and while run over in the flood of immigration their history continued . This fascinating part of our Nation's history and the context in which it occurred is the heart of this work.
