Extractions: Polar bears are the major attraction of the WMA, but also important are the coastal caribou. Beluga whales are plentiful in the Churchill River and Nelson River estuaries in the summer. As well as being part of a major nesting ground for the eastern prairie population of Canada geese, over 225 other species of birds have been identified in the region. Arctic fox, lynx, wolverine, marten, ermine, otter, mink, and beaver can be found in the WMA.

Bald eagles, moose, loons, seals and porpoises are just a few of the animals you may encounter, whether touring by car, relaxing over a picnic, on a porch, on a harbor cruise or along a forest trail. Maines exceptional variety and diversity of wildlife species are the result of a joining of several specific habitats; Maine is the natural boundary of the northern evergreen boreal forests, each of which offers an unusual variety of wildlife. In addition to forestland habitats, Maines 33,000 square miles of landscape range from sea level to cloud-capped mountains, and each change in elevation and geography brings with it its own unique variety of birds, mammals and fish, contributing greatly to the diversity of wildlife. Add to this some 5,500 miles of rugged coast, 6,000 lakes and ponds and thousands of miles of rivers-all offering incredible opportunities to view animals on, in and around the water-and visitors to Maine are sure to have a spectacular and memorable wildlife experience.

Winter Weasels EcoTarium Home wildlife Animal of the Month Archive it eats onethird ofits body weight. Sound something like a Wolverine? It s actually an ermine. http://www.ecotarium.org/ed/wildlife/aotm/archive/199812_weasel/
Extractions: EcoTarium Home Wildlife Animal of the Month Archive The name may be unfamiliar, but the stench unmistakable. Mustelids are mammals found worldwide, and are recognized by the scent produced by their well-developed anal musk glands. Examples of Mustelids living locally include skunks and river otters. Musk glands work as defense mechanisms for these creatures. They spray to keep predators away. Similar to your household pets, Mustelids also use their scent to mark territory. The EcoTarium is home to two North American River Otters. An expanded habitat and exhibit for the otters are expected to open next May. Many wild skunks also live on EcoTarium property and all over New England. Because skunks are nocturnal animals, you might not even realize they're living on your property - unless a neighborhood pet is sprayed by one. One type of Mustelid has been described as fearless, cunning and agile. Each night, it eats one-third of its body weight. Sound something like a Wolverine? It's actually an Ermine. The Ermine has a second defense mechanism, as well. In addition to its foul scent, the Ermine molts, or sheds its hair, twice a year, changing its color in the process. In the spring, the Ermine sheds its winter coat and becomes mostly brown. In the autumn molt, the Ermine's coat turns white. Camouflaged in the New England environment, the Ermine is better able to hunt and escape its predators.

Extractions: The Olympic Peninsula is home to a unique ecosystem that includes plants and animals that exist only on the Olympic Peninsula (endemic). There are eight endemic plants and 15 endemic animals . These plants and animals do not live outside the Olympic Peninsula because the peninsula has been isolated from the rest of the United States for thousands of years. Two thousand years ago, a vast continental sheet of glacial ice ran south from the Arctic covering western Canada. When it reached the Olympic Mountains, the sheet was split into two lobes, the Juan de Fuca and Puget ice lobes. During this time, a glacial outwash stream wrapped around the south side of the peninsula and extended to the Pacific Ocean. This cut the peninsula off from the nearby Cascade Mountains, as well as the rest of the continent. The end result is that not many animals were able to enter or exit the area.

Extractions: My wife couldn't wait to tell me a week or so ago that an old friend had returned to our wetland woods. She was the one who spotted it in the yard the first time it showed up three years ago. I had just put one of the kids in the bathtub when she called me to come and look out the dining room window at an unusual white animal climbing the trunk of a cedar tree where we had hung out suet for the woodpeckers. I excitedly informed her that we had a weasel in out back yard. A second later, the doorbell rang. I opened the door, and before the Electrolux salesman could open his mouth and start his pitch, I grabbed him by the arm and pulled him into the house saying, "Hey, have you ever seen a weasel before? Neither have we. Come on in." I firmly believe that watching wildlife improves the quality of life. The stunned vacuum cleaner salesman seemed to agree. During winter, the ermine or short-tailed weasel (Mustela erminea) sheds its dark brown coat and replaces it with an all-white covering, except for a black tip on the tail and a hint of black on the nose. The sleek winter white coat is near-perfect camouflage for life in snow country. The ermine's cold-weather covering is valued highly by trappers, and the black-tipped tails have long been part of the traditional trim on garments worn by kings and queens. Male ermine are almost twice as large as females, varying in length from 7½ to 13½ inches. Featherweights of the mammal kingdom, the ermine weighs in at a slight 1 7/8 to 6 3/8 ounces.
Extractions: Regular sightings on and around the Basin include osprey, grey heron, common tern and common seal. The mute swan population is increasing as birds come from other areas to use the Basin as a safe haven during their wing moult when they will be flightless for 4 or 5 weeks. Male eider along with a flock of female goosander are also in various stages of moult. Small flocks of waders in breeding plumage include black-tailed godwit, turnstone and dunlin. There have been recent sightings of greenshank, common sandpiper, water rail, golden plover, little egret and a juvenile cuckoo. Redshank and lapwing numbers are increasing as they return to the Basin at the end of their breeding season.

Leonardo's Lady With The Ferret? Leonardo da Vinci, Lady with an ermine, from the Web Gallery of Art I suspectthe original comes from the Hirundo wildlife Refuge page. http://www.ariadne.org/studio/michelli/leonardoferret.html
Extractions: He argued that it had been modelled on a cat. Here is an alternative possibility This is an ermine (a weasel in its winter coat). It is only five inches long. Note the big black eyes and nose, and the unmistakably cute face. All these are missing from the Lady's "ermine", which is indeed cat-sized, has pink eyes and nose, and aggressive-looking snout pouches. This is a ferret. This one has dark guard hairs, but you can get white ferrets. Ferrets make great pets. They are cat-sized and note also the little pink eyes and nose and the snout pouches. I put it to you that Leonardo used a ferret as his model, not a cat. Scroll down for " proof This is John Oliver Wilson with his "ferret"! Except - it's not a ferret. The picture has been doctored, and the creature is actually an ermine whose photo appears in two other places on the web. I suspect the original comes from the Hirundo Wildlife Refuge page. The other comes from a
