Please
help the wild animals in
Golden, British Columbia, Canada |
On
their January 2003 trip to Alberta, Canada, Andrew & Barbara
made a stop to visit the Northern
Lights Wildlife Wolf Centre. Having made a stop in
Golden, BC on their Montana-Alberta-British Columbia trek, they were told
about the center. Pausing to reflect on the death of 7 high school skiers that
day in an avalanche, they decided to pay a visit the next
morning, delivering a bag of canine biscuits and upon returning
home, sending some product and a cash donation. Wolves
have been recognized to be a valuable and needed part of the
eco-system. Wolves
have been recently re-introduced into the Wyoming landscape
in the area of Yellowstone National Park. Some of the
above animals have starred in Hollywood motion pictures.
The Wolf Center needs your help to continue rescuing
animals and educating the public. Please consider
sending a donation by clicking on their link above.

overpasses in
Banff, British Columbia, Canada |
CLICK HERE to view a short
video.
Rather than
force wildlife beneath the road where they are intimidated,
Canadians have created wide, open-air overpasses for
wildlife to migrate along their corridors that have been
bisected by man. Shown here is one of two crossing on
the Trans-Canada Highway just north of Banff in the Bow
River Valley of Banff National Park. Key to preserving
many species of habitat is the need to preserve migration
corridors for wolves, bear, deer, caribou, mouse, elk,
foxes, marmots and many other creatures. For more

wildlife, CLICK
