12 BET Emergency groups are composed of two divisions: One national commission regional emergency groups Protocol (underdevelopment) Duties and activities of the National commission: It elects and control the members of the regional groups Collects and analyses the data presented by the regional commissions Makes decisions on coping with problematic bears, as well as on damage compensation. It coordinates annual quota for shooting of brown bear specimens in regions. It controls all the activities of other organizations, institutions and individuals, connected with the brown bear. It acts as a major informing body for giving of information on problematic bears to the public in connection with conflicts settlement. Brown Bear Conservation Program in Bulgaria
13 Regional Emergency Groups They immediately visit the place, in case of signal for damages done by bear They ascertain and instantly evaluate the damage and immediately presented their conclusions in a protocol to the National commission. They make suggestions to the National commission about compensations for owner of damaged by brown bear property. Suggest immediate actions against a problematic bear according to the data gathered to the National commission for. Prescribe local preventing measures (for example dung-hill cleaning, etc.) to reduce the problems Immediately take or set activities or measures in case of trap release or in other conditions, which harmed the specimen, as well as medical treatment of such ones. To keep the expert level of the regional commissions members high, they have to go to an annual refreshing course, in addition a training course for new damage appraisers has to be carried out. Coping with a problematic bear at first through frightening, if this measure is ineffective, then other steps can be taken: catch and marking of a problematic bear for easier tracking, moving the bear to other place, holding in captivity (zoo or else) and as a last resort shooting. Measures have to be directed to preserve the species and to solve the problem human-bear. Brown Bear Conservation Program in Bulgaria
