WHO WE ARE
OUR STORY
Working with crews on many different sites taught us that there is a risk tolerance variance - some workers are entirely comfortable in the field and others are very afraid.
We want people to feel safe and be comfortable in their work environments so they can focus on their tasks. We believe it is our responsibility to share our wildlife knowledge and be the Keen Eyes that watch over workers in the field.
Serving British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Nunavut,
Yukon, and North West Territories

NEED TO KNOW ABOUT
COUGARS
Cougars are “spot and stalk” hunters and have extremely good vision.
Attacks by cougar are rare but can be fatal, especially if young children are involved. In all cases you must fight back as cougar attacks are always predatory and the cougar sees you as a meal. Use rocks, sticks or whatever you have at hand to protect yourself.
