How Can I Help Protect Bears?
The Bear Taxon Advisory Group seeks to work with other like-minded organizations.
Together we can make a difference for bears.

We can accept checks and money orders to help support our efforts for bear conservation and education. All donations should be sent to the following address:

Mark Reed
Bear TAG Treasurer
Sedgwick County Zoo
5555 Zoo Boulevard
Wichita, KS 67212-1698
email: director@scz.org

All donations of $20-or-more will receive a colorful, enamel collectible pin.
Please include your name, mailing address and daytime phone number with all correspondence.

We also urge you to join your local AZA accredited zoo and visit often. Your membership dollars help your zoo with its conservation programs and the education you gain will better prepare you to become a conservation advocate.

Support the AZA's Conservation Endowment Fund (CEF), dedicated to granting funds to cooperative conservation programs both within its member facilities and in world-wide endeavors including habitat conservation, local wildlife education efforts and species reintroduction.

Support legislation that will ban the trade of bear parts in the United States and internationally. Poaching poses the largest threat to bears in our own country. Together we can put a stop to it.
