Pacific Northwest Trail and Grizzly Bears in the Yaak
In 2018, Lance Craighead and Wayne McCrory examined the likely impacts of a high-intensity hiking trail through the Yaak Watershed in NW Montana which is home to a very small population of grizzly bears. The final report can be downloaded here:

Lance Craighead prepared a statement about the need to maintain a metapopulation of grizzly bears to ensure survival in the Lower-48 states.
It will soon appear at this site [http://www.montanaforestplan.org/] in conjunction with statements by other grizzly bear experts.
