Our various publications advance scientific knowledge on the world’s eight bear species through multiple formats. Ursus, our peer-reviewed journal, features rigorous research articles that focus on bear biology and conservation. In addition, IBN (International Bear News) shares updates and relevant news about bear research and conservation efforts. We also compile findings and discussions from scientific workshops in our Workshop Proceedings, facilitating knowledge exchange among experts. Furthermore, our official letters and statements articulate authoritative positions based on the best available science for critical conservation issues. Together, these publications foster collaboration and raise awareness for the conservation of bear species worldwide.
