#CoywolfTracks

Some stabbing yip-howls have been heard from the darkness after 3am this morning. And today a couple of tracks like these were found near the house.

These guys are particularly vocal when they're hungry and looking for something to eat as for this time of the year food is getting scarce for wildlife.

Dogs wanted to go out looking for them but for me it is a solid no. Coywolves, who roams the valley here, always hunt in small pack of three. They are extremely vicious and now able to drag down a dear in less then 10sec.

So during Winter Seasons the food for Ravens around here is scarce and If you want to know why we help some of them to survive, well just listen to that video. Now you can’t see them in this video, but we did; so we know. And btw you need to pump up the volume.

It is the sound of a juvenile who’s extremely hungry, that has made a small come back in the valley asking “If I can say” for a little help from his father to get something to eat. And juveniles know that parents have a good connection for food. Us.

That is no fucking joke folks; the poor bird is so hungry that he has practically lost is voice.

Of course juvenile Ravens have been raised to never ask or accept food from humans. But we have gain 100% trust from Jack and Diane therefore they came to us for a little help. So we did provide that help.

((Northern Ravens “Les Grand Corbeaux Canadiens” are protected by the Canadian Law and somehow, when it’s possible, it is kind of our duty to provide any assistance that these birds may need))

A couple of minutes later the juvenile ate the food (that we provided) from their parents and went back to his own territory with a stomach full.

#AtlanticPuffin

Encounter with an official pair of Atlantic Puffins, symbol for the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador, while on our way to visit some friends.

Even if the Atlantic Puffin has a large population with a wide range, this species declined rapidly resulting in it being rated as vulnerable by the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature).

What helps them is that colonies are mostly on islands, with no terrestrial predators.

#WinterActivities

So this is what happens around here during a normal Winter day in, The Laurentian Mountains Range.

Miles of walking trails, snowshoeing, ice skating games, snowmobile, dog sledding, outside thermal bath, outdoor fire pit grills with drinks and friends… And whatever you’re up to.

#WildernessNeedProtection

I’m not here to teach (or educate) anything to anyone but only as a reminder about the benefits of nature which, has is own limit. Wilderness cleans our air, filters our water and provides home for human as well as for wildlife.

So it is crucial for humanity, which is already to blame, to bring radical changes today before it’s entire extinction tomorrow.

That is my only intention here folks.
