The spirit bear is very rare--only about 400 left apparently--and are very important and mystical to natives along the coast of British Colombia. It is illegal to hunt them, but not the black bear, which carry the recessive gene that creates the white spirit bear. So the number of gene-carrying black bears are becoming less in number, they say.
