The fate of other areas containing irreplaceable natural and cultural wonders hangs in the balance. This area contains wildlife and plants which are unique. We have seen a breeding pair of Sandhill Cranes. Beautiful Mountain Goats, Puffins and Osprey can be seen on the craggy cliffs. Bald Eagles and the stately and mysterious Ravens sit in trees overseeing their territory.
Wolves call to one another.
Bears and Blacktail Deer forage in the forest and at the water's edge. Beavers and trout inhabit the rivers and lakes. River Otters and Stellar Sea Lions fish and cavort near kelp and rocky islets. Murres, Loons, Murrelets, Rhinoceros Auklets, Great Blue Herons, Kingfishers and Grebes are but a few of the many bird varieties that can be seen in a single day. Salmon, Halibut, Crab, Shrimp and Rockfish in many colours inhabit the coastal waters.
