In a small B.C. town, a grizzly family stirs unease (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Around noon on Thursday, the elementary school at the heart of a quiet coastal town issued a shelter-in-place order. Staff kept students inside. A road to the local marina was blocked off. Phone lines and Facebook groups erupted with warnings: Strangers with fierce reputations had come to town and residents worried about a confrontation. But it soon became clear that the newcomers – a mama grizzly and her three yearlings – wanted little to do with humans. They gorged on apples before galumphing

Read excerpt
Peter Welsh runs a Facebook account called Pete Witnesses Nature, where he posts photos and videos of the wildlife that Torontonians might otherwise miss as they hurry about the city clutching phones and avoiding eye contact.
