POPSThe Spirit Bear
While the white bears are protected by law, the other ninety percent...the ones that carry the gene but don't show the coloration...are fair game. Also, timber companies are interested in logging the islands and areas where these bears live. For the past couple of years debate has been heating up over a proposed park centered on Princess Royal Island. "Spirit Bear Park" would encompass 265,000 hectares, (1,000 sq. miles "ish"), and provide complete protection for the ten or fifteen white bears that live there and their black kin, as well as grizzlies, wolves, ancient stands of Sitka Spruce, and important spawning streams for salmon. The B.C. government has counter-proposed a 39,000 hectare park, giving the rest to loggers. The clear-cutting began last year. We will just have to wait and see what kind of impact it has on the bears. Black bears of any color are pretty good at adapting to man, and I think that in the long run, the Kermode Bear will survive, even if it's numbers are reduce

POPSThis is a Real Rabbit: Alba The Green Bunny This is a true story. Does anyone else remember this? It is only a vague memory in my mind. I think I had dismissed it as a hoax. Rumors were that when the artist took her home, that it had died, but Kac, vehemently denied it. I have raised many, many rabbits, and it never entered my mind to make one colored like this. Genetically speaking of course. Can you imagine the surprise the kids would get on Easter morning when the bunny was more brightly colored than the eggs?!

POPSPink Dolphin Have you ever seen a pink dolphin? Me either...but Believe It or Not!, here it is! Charter boat captain Erik Rue, 42, captured this image after the mammal first surfaced in Lake Calcasieu, an inland saltwater estuary, north of the Gulf of Mexico in southwestern USA. He said: "I just happened to see a little pod of dolphins, and I noticed one that was a little lighter. "It was absolutely stunningly pink.” It is actually an albino dolphin. A close relation of dolphins, the Amazon River Botos, called pink dolphins, live in South America in the Amazon. USA Photo: CATERS NEWS
