Project Puffin was started by the Audubon Society in 1973 in an effort to restore puffins

to historic nesting islands in the Gulf of Maine. Although the Atlantic Puffin is not an endangered species (they are abundant in Newfoundland, Iceland, and Britain), they were nearly locally extinct in Maine. These days there are more than 700 nesting pairs on four Maine islands - a true conservation victory !

Puffins are often confused with penguins. They have similar colors, and both swim under water using their wings as fins, but they are not related and live at opposite polar ends of the world. Unlike penguins puffins have not lost their ability to fly. Puffins do not come to land outside of the breeding season, flying, swimming or riding the ocean surface throughout the year regardless of weather.

Sea otters can be observed in shallow coastal waters in the Northern Pacific. They are among the very few animals that use tools in the wild. Otters use rocks as weights when diving by holding them under their arm. After they come back to the surface they would use the same rock to break open the clams or oysters they harvested from the bottom. When sleeping or resting, instead of coming up to dry land, sea otters will float on their backs, often wrapped in kelp, so the current doesn’t carry them away. Link to Wiki article on sea otters.

The Sea Otter webcam at the Vancouver Aquarium is a live streaming webcam. There is no sound but the video stream is very clear and flows very smoothly. The video below shows 2 of the Vancouver Aquarium sea otters - Milo (Male) and Nyac (Female) floating on their backs and holding paws !

There are 3 otters living in the exhibit. Nyac is a mature female, rescued during the ‘89 Exxon Valdez oil spill. Milo is a male born in the Lisbon Aquarium. Tanu is a young female found as a pup floating all alone in Alaskan waters.
Did you know that a group of sea otters floating together is called a “raft” ? Visit the aquaruim website’s AquaFact page for more Sea Otter info.

This is a 360 degrees pan, zoom, live streaming camera. The cam is live from 4am until 10pm Pacific Standard Time. At night and during the off season it’s replaying highlights of the best cam footage recorded earlier. The webcam is hosted on the site of National Geographic and has many extras : information on polar bears, video highlights, polar bear photos & wallpapers, forum, info on polar bear behavior and more.

The snow whipped tundra fields and capes east of the smal town of Churchill, in Manitoba, Canada is the best place in the world to see polar bears. Here the bears gather in large numbers during their last weeks on dry land. The annual freeze-up arrives at the Hudson Bay around Churchill earlier than anywhere else. Hunting better on ice than on land the polar bears can’t wait for the ice blocks to form. They gather from hundreds of miles usually in late November to wait out the last 3-4 weeks before the Hudson Bay freezes.
