Caucasian Bear

Caucasian Bear

Caucasian Bear, also known as Trans-Caucasian Grey Bear, lives in the South-East of Armenia. Large scale hunting was first reported at the end of the 19th century. Their reduction in numbers has reached a critical level. Man is its only predator. Broadening economic activity and human persecution of this animal make them frequently change their area of settlement.Since 1969, the licensed hunt for Trans-Caucasian Grey Bear has been officially prohibited.
