gear to help you remember the best things of your trip.
Ecobeetle offers a guide to the
best outdoor gear for 2009 and the best places to

by Cat
Urbigkit
Published
by McDonald and Woodward Publishing Company
Wolves
are animals that often invoke many emotions
within many different people. Few animals
around the world stir such emotions as the
wolf. Excitement. Passion. Fear. Yellowstone

amazing story of the re-introduction of wolves
to Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. It
explains in incredibly researched detail the
battles over this program in an eye-opening
way that will educate and enlighten the

fact that the native Wyoming Wolf, long thought
to have been eradicated, was actually
continually sighted and Cat Urbigkit presents
this
fact and many others thoroughly and accurately allowing this
incredible tale to be told. The story of the
survival of the wolf continues to be told and
man will always play an integral part. Yellowstone Wolves – A Chronicle of the
Animal, the People and the Politics by Cat Urbigkit is an insightful and fascinating
read.

Florida
Panther - South Florida is an ecosystem of land, water, plant
and animal life that has been evolving for millions of years. Humans have
emerged as a major influence on the Floridian ecosystem. The Florida
panther was an important predator in the Florida ecosystem before large
numbers of Europeans settled there. Panthers ate mostly deer over vast
areas but hunting of panthers in the 18th and 19th centuries reduced their
numbers and restricted their range. Human settlement also shrank the range
of deer, the mainstay of the panther's diet, and hunters competed with
panthers for deer. Only 30 to 50 adults remain, many of which are old,
genetically impaired, or weakened by disease and poor diet.

Blue Whale
Balaenoptera musculus
The blue
whale is the largest animal to have ever lived on Earth.
It weighs up to 136,000 kg and is as long as 34 m. It is
pale blue-gray in colour with a tiny dorsal fin. Blue
whales occur in cold and temperate regions where the
water is deep. They travel alone, as mother and calves,
and rarely as adult pairs. Only occasionally do they
gather in loose groups to feed. The blue whale is found
in all the oceans of the world. The blue whale is known
to occur in the Arctic, Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific
oceans. . There are three subspecies. B. m.
intermedia occurs in Antarctic waters, B. m.
musculus is found in the northern hemisphere and
B. m. brevicauda also known as the pygmy” blue
whale is found in the southern Indian Ocean
and southwest Pacific Ocean. The number
of blue whales was greatly depleted by commercial
whaling before 1964.

Saving the
Oceans
From Florida to the Philippines, many of the world's best
known coral reefs and most popular dive sites are now threatened by
human activity. Long admired for their spectacular beauty and
extraordinary biodiversity, coral reefs are among Earth's most
biologically productive, commercially valuable, and ecologically fragile
ecosystems.
Coral reefs are deteriorating worldwide due to the rapid
growth of human populations and the effects of human technology.
Land-based sources of pollution and overexploitation of reef resources are
among the most serious human-induced threats on local and regional scales,
with global warming also contributing on a broader scale. These threats
extend to reefs throughout our oceans, but are of greatest concern to
reefs close to human populations, such as those off Florida, throughout
the Wider Caribbean, South and Southeast Asia, and East Africa.
