The Spirit Bear
The Spirit Bear is also called the Kermode Bear, which is a subspecies of the Black Bear and lives in the coastal regions of British Columbia in Canada. Kermode Bears can be black or white, it's the white ones who are the so-called Spirit Bears. The Kermode Bear was given its name after a Canadian naturalist, Francis Kermode, which has now entered the vernacular as meaning 'black bear'. According to the Kitasoo legend, Raven, The Creator of the world, made a pact with the bears making every tenth bear white, to remind people of the ice age. This reminder of harsh times, when the world was decimated by ice, should be a reminder to us all of what could lie ahead lest we cure our ways and tidy up our planet.
The Iberian Lynx
The Iberian Lynx is a wild cat and one of the rarest felines in the world with just over 2,000 left on the planet. Lynxes have pointy black tipped ears, a tawny gold coat with black spots and a little goatee beard which makes them look very cute and very wise! Iberian Lynx's grown to about three feet or a meter in length, and they survive on rabbits and other small game. Also called the Spanish Lynx, they live in Spain and Portugal - on the Iberian Peninsula - and are an inspiring example of how we can help a species recover. The population of Lynxes has recovered from just 100 cats in 2002 to 2,021 today, thanks to the Spanish Government, the European Union and private groups working together! Showing us how it's done! Thank you.
Tigers
The world's total Tiger population has shrunk by 96% in the last century with not more than 4,000 remaining, most of which live in India. 3 sub-species are now extinct and 5 remain, including the Siberian Tiger of which there are around 400 still living. The causes of this population loss are loss of habitat and poaching. Tigers are solitary animals, although there is a name for a group of Tigers - an "ambush", which, of course, is how they hunt. Tigers are carnivores with adults weighing over 500 pounds and growing to ten feet in length! As babies, Tigers are born blind, and one in two survive living up to 25 years. Although Tigers are cats they can't purr and have their own language.
