Bryan Gates
bryan_gates Photo BRYAN GATES is a native British Columbian who brings with him an exciting and diverse professional career. Extensive experience in the management of birds and mammals, coastal resources, forestry, and energy developments have given him an appreciation of the competing demands placed on wilderness and the environment. He earned a Master of Science degree in wildlife management at the University of British Columbia and has worked in that province for more than 30 years. He is past president of the Association of Professional Biologists of British Columbia. Although Bryan has devoted extensive time to the study of marine and terrestrial mammals, his special interest is in birds. In his free time he teaches introductory ornithology and bird identification at the college level in Victoria and is very active in natural history organizations. He has travelled throughout much of British Columbia in search of its 450 species of birds.
