The Yukon’s Klaune National Park

I caught a private bus to Whitehorse where I rented a car. The Yukon’s capital lacked the atmosphere of Dawson City, but it still had the Yukon River powering past its door.

Finally — a beaver

Over the years I’ve spent hours exercising around Lake LaFarge where I’ve admired an occasional bald eagle, a profusion of ducks and Canada geese and even a few tortoise sunning themselves on logs, but I had yet to spot a beaver.

Vancouver Island’s Wildlife Recovery Centre

This animal recovery centre was located at Errington, not far west of Parksville. It was originally intended for bears and raptors, but the centre has dealt with every kind of animal brought for rescue.
