As human settlements expand, encounters between people and wildlife increasingly occur at the edges of shared habitats.
This episode explores acoustic approaches to mitigating human–bear conflict, focusing on sound not as deterrence through force, but as communication through presence.

Drawing from the attached recording, the discussion centers on low-intensity, repeatable acoustic signals designed to register within a bear’s perceptual field without triggering stress or panic. Rather than alarms or aggression, these sounds function as environmental markers—subtle cues that signal human proximity and reshape movement patterns over time.

We examine how carefully tuned frequencies, rhythms, and durations can coexist with natural soundscapes, offering non-invasive alternatives to physical barriers or lethal control. Sound becomes infrastructure: an invisible boundary that negotiates space between species.

This episode considers acoustic design as a form of coexistence—where technology supports ecological balance by aligning human activity with animal behavior. It is an approach grounded in listening first, intervention second, and long-term harmony rather than short-term exclusion.
