US EditionPicking buffaloberries and electric fences: how wildlife is being managed ahead of G7
- More than 200 local children began plucking buffaloberry bushes near Kananaskis in May 2025 to deter bears ahead of the G7 summit.
- Officials launched this effort because buffaloberries, which attract bears, had not been cleared for about 15 years around the summit area.
- Alberta public safety staff will install electric fences around bear attractants, and delegates will receive wildlife awareness training to prevent conflicts.
- Trevor Julian said the activities could reduce human-wildlife conflict and engage the public, noting, "There's quite a lot of them."
- These wildlife management measures aim to keep bears and people safe, minimizing close encounters as about 5,000 participants gather for the June 2025 summit.
