Canada Talk » Ultimate fishing town

Win $25,000

Mein Favorit wäre Port Alberni, war erst vor kurzem dort.
Die könnten den Gewinn gut brauchen. Gönne es auch
Nestor Falls. Ein Kopf an Kopf-Rennen, die Vorentscheidung
war schon spannend zwischen Dauphin und Port Alberni.

Heute schwächelt die Seite ein bisschen, bisher haben die
Organisatoren es immer wieder hin bekommen.

Port Alberni hat den Titel geholt, das kleine Fischerstädtchen auf
Vancouver Island. In Port Alberni ist nicht nur der Bär gerade
los im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes. Soviel Bärenmeldungen (Warnungen) habe ich selten gehört wie im Moment in und um
Port Alberni.

Mich freut es für Port Alberni:

apropo Bären:

"Fall is the time of year when bears enter "hyperphagia", a period of excessive eating to build a layer of fat to sustain them through their winter hibernation. Pregnant sows can consume up to 25,000 calories a day. While the bears can obtain these calorie quotas from natural sources such as berries & salmon, they will be attracted to high calorie non-natural foods including garbage, pet-food, birdseed etc...."

Orte wie Prince Ruppert haetten den Titel aber auch verdient- finde ich, ich denke die Liste laesst sich endlos fortsetzen.

Large shark washes up in Port Alberni Inlet

Published: Saturday, February 12, 2011

Ron Steinbach got a little more than he expected on Friday when he stumbled on a large shark in the Alberni Inlet.

The shark, which was close to 14 feet long, was on beach by the Boy Scout Camp, close to Coulson's Mill site, down the Alberni Inlet. He found it and brought it over to the APD site across the bay.
