  • Black Bear Information Sheet
    Maine Chapter of The Wildlife Society Excellence In Wildlife Stewardship Through Science and Education The Maine Chapter of The Wildlife Society (MeTWS), established in 1976, is a local membership organization of The Wildlife Society, an international non-profit scientific and educational association dedicated to excellence in wildlife stewardship through science and education. The mission of MeTWS is to enhance the ability of wildlife professionals to conserve diversity, sustain productivity, and ensure responsible use of wildlife resources for the benefit of society. The membership of MeTWS includes approximately 120 wildlife professionals and other concerned individuals employed by government agencies, academic institutions, private firms, and non-governmental organizations, working to promote sound stewardship of wildlife resources throughout Maine. MAINE BLACK BEAR POPULATION INFORMATION April 16, 2004 Current Bear Status in Maine Black bears exist throughout the state with the exception of the extreme south-coastal region of the state. 23,000 bears are estimated to inhabit the state. Maine has the largest population of black bears of any state in the eastern U.S., and one of the largest populations within the lower-48. Regulated hunting and trapping are the primary methods used to manage the number of bears in the population. Black bears are an important component of the state’s ecosystem, and are valued by society, including hunters and non-hunters. Management History State legislature has the authority to enact laws to regulate bear populations, but practical aspects of implementing regulations were transferred to the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife (MDIFW) in 1972. Bears were bountied from 1770-1957; considered a pest species until 1931 (no closed season); a short season was established and opened coincidentally with the deer season from 1931-1941; year-round open season was reinstituted from 1942-1965; season lengths and harvests have changed since 1966.
