The logging of the trees along the streams has damaged the places where the bears fish.
砍伐溪流沿岸樹木的行為毀壞了白靈熊捕魚的地方。
To make matters worse, the number of salmon in those streams is declining because there is no legal limit onfishing at the moment.
使得問題更加嚴重的是，那些溪流中的鮭魚數量也在減少，因為當時對捕魚并沒有法律限制。
All these influences have a negative impact on the spirit bear's very existence,
所有這些影響對白靈熊的生存都產生了負面作用，
which is made all the more fragile by the fact that reproduction among these bears has always been disappointingIy low.
而這些熊的繁殖率一直都比較低這一事實更是使得它們愈加脆弱。
And so, what's the situation going forward?
那么，未來的情況又將如何呢？
Community organizations, environmental groups and the British Columbia government are now working together on the problem.
社區組織、環境保護團體和大不列顛哥倫比亞省政府現在都在共同解決這一問題。
The government is now requiring logging companies to adopt a better logging method, which is a positive step.
政府目前正要求伐木公司采取一種更好的伐木手段，這是一個積極的措施。
However, these measures alone may not be sufficient to ensure a healthy population of the spirit bear in thefuture.
但是，只采取這些措施也許并不足以保證未來白靈熊的數量呈一個健康的態勢。
Other steps also need to be taken. While it is important to maintain the spirit bear's habitat, there also needs to be more emphasis on its expansion.
其他措施也需要付諸實行。雖然維護白靈熊的棲息地也很重要，但是還需要更加強調棲息地的擴張。
The move is justified as it will also create space for other bears that are losing their homes...
這種方法是非常合理的，因為它也會給其他正失去家園的熊創造出生存空間......
