Sea Otter Reintroduction Planned for British Columbia Coast
A centennial project by federal and provincial governments aims to rebalance BC coast fauna by trapping sea otters in Alaska waters this autumn for reintroduction to parts of the BC coast. Kenneth Kiernan notes the otter’s role in exploration and views restoration as fitting for the centennial. The species disappeared from BC in the late 1800s due to overexploitation and easy harvesting. Provincial and general wildlife agencies will work with a federal fisheries research vessel to carry out the plan. otters now occur on the Pacific coast only in Alaska and California.

Check These Against The Grocery List
Agricultural department economists forecast minor price shifts across meats and fruit with beef, pork, and turkey stabilizing or easing slightly. Eggs may rise modestly due to tighter supplies, while peaches and plums are expected smaller but firm in price. Lettuce and tomatoes should drop as local supplies rise.
