  1. Vancouver Island marmots will soon come out of hibernation. Some colonies are located on ski hills so they close the ski resort for a few weeks in April.
    This marmot is endemic to Vancouver Island. It's an endangered species that is making a remarquable recovery thanks to marmots.org

  2. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🏔️⏳ At 4,000 meters in the #Himalayas, life is a race against the clock.

    Young Himalayan #marmots have just 12 weeks to eat enough to survive an eight-month hibernation. But first, they have to fight for territory and stay clear of the local #foxes, #bears, and #eagles.

  4. Marmots side by side on the alpine tundra of RMNP. Sometimes the smallest wildlife encounters are the most memorable.

    What’s your favorite unexpected animal sighting?

  6. On November 14, I will have the pleasure to meet members of the Alpine Club of Canada in Saanich and talk about my experience photographing the Vancouver Island marmot for my book. This is the rarest mammal in Canada. To learn more and support the recovery efforts, please visit the Vancouver Island Marmot Recovery Foundation: marmots.org/

  7. Any Vancouver Island Marmots that venture out of their dens today (because the snow is gone!) are unlikely to see their shadow but honestly, a little more winter would probably be a good thing! #PortAlberni #GroundHogDay #Winter #Snow #Marmots #VancouverIsland

  8. Ever hear the chirp of marmots during your high altitude hike? It's because someone forgot to change their batteries. #marmots

  16. Gates of the #Arctic National Park and Preserve is an #American national park that protects portions of the Brooks Range in northern #Alaska. The park is the northernmost national park in the United States, situated entirely north of the Arctic Circle. The #park is the second largest in the #US, slightly larger in area than #Belgium. Gates of the Arctic was initially designated as a national monument on December 1, 1978, before being redesignated as a national park and preserve upon passage of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act in 1980.
    A large part of the park has additional protection as the Gates of the Arctic #Wilderness that adjoins the Noatak Wilderness. They form the largest contiguous wilderness in the United States together.
    Fauna include brown #bears, black bears, #muskoxen, #moose, Dall #sheep, timber #wolves, #wolverines, #coyotes, #lynxes, #marmots, #porcupines, river #otters, red and Arctic #fox species, #beavers, snowshoe hares, muskrats, bald #eagles, golden eagles, peregrine #falcons, ospreys, great horned and northern hawk-owls. More than half a million caribou, including the Central Arctic, Western Arctic, Teshekpuk, and Porcupine herds, #migrate through the central Brooks Range twice yearly, #traveling north in summer, and south in winter. Caribou are important as a #food source to native peoples. The park is the northernmost range limit for the Dall sheep. About 132 brown bears reside in the park and preserve, based on a density of about one bear per 100 square miles.
