Festival of Wildlife 2007 - Diary

This year's festival in Canada promised Spirit Bears, Humpback whales, and all the usual fun amongst the wildlife lovers and experts alike....

"Nick was out whale-watching - and saw numerous Humpbacks. He says that they have the worst hallitosis of any mammal he has got close to - apparently, their breath smells of three week old fish guts mixed with rancid cabbage".

"Of course this was followed by another bear out in full view, feeding on the shoreline. Oh, and then there was the bear hauling a salmon out of the river whilst we were sitting at the viewing point - which of course was immediately followed by another right in front of us that proceeded to jump into the water and grapple with salmon, after salmon, after salmon. Not a bad start to the day."
