Bear Awareness Campaign
There are 8 species of bears in the world and 6 of them are either labeled vulnerable or endangered. There are a number of reasons why, such as climate change, habitat loss, human expansion, and poaching.

These are my old ideas for a bear awareness logo. On the left, the logo has a cuter and more cartoon-like bear. Prior to focusing on a single aspect, I made this one with the general idea of knowing more about bears.
On the right, the logo has has a more realistic looking bear. A more serious look is used as I decided to focus more on the violence against bears.
These are the most common victims of bear bile farming: the Asiatic black bear, Sun bear, and Brown bear. In bear bile farming, the bears would be kept in small cages and restrained, and a catheter is then used to extract the bile from the gallbladder. While there are bears born in captivity, some prefer wild bears as they think the medicinal strength would be better.
Habitat loss is also a major contributor to the decreasing population of bears. Not only is there less food and shelter, but the safety of the animal is not guaranteed. Habitat loss may force them to move closer to human populated areas and get killed for the inhabitants' safety.
