In response to the announcement, BC Greens leader Andrew Weaver criticized them despite having spent years campaigning to end the trophy hunt.
According to Weaver, banning possession of the hide, paws and head leaves open the possibility that hunters could shoot a grizzly bear and leave the entire carcass behind.
Hunters throughout the province can circumvent the law by removing a portion of meat from a bear香蕉视频直播檚 carcass and claiming the kill as food, the group said in a statement.
In a video released Tuesday, Cyrus is singing Teddy Bears香蕉视频直播� Picnic alongside clips of empty wilderness.
The recording artist visited B.C. in 2015, and toured the Great Bear Rainforest to fight the province香蕉视频直播檚 wolf cull.
