| Summary: | Much people feel concerned with the situation of the Brown Bear in the French Pyrenees more especially as it occupies the media scene regularly. The reintroduction in 2006 made forget that of 1996 and the existence of an indigenous population. The opposition from the ideas harms the comprehension of the complexity of the ecological, territorial, political and cultural stakes related to this plan of reinforcement. The hostile radical fringe to Bear sowed the disorder in the spirits. This one has become more serious thanks to the public authorities awkwardness and especially thanks to the crisis-change of the rural companies.

The meaning of our thought will also aim at thinking of a possible future of the mountain rural communities, confronted by a break with their model, revealed by Bear. Then It is the strong symbol not only for restoration of the biodiversity, but more generally in the way as the societies form part – or not – durably into a fragile environment.

L’opposition des points de vue nuit à la compréhension de la complexité des enjeux écologiques, territoriaux, ... |
