A
Blue Whale September 21, 2009
World
Wildlife Fund
BLUE WHALE - ENDANGERED SPECIES
Blue whales are endangered
due to legal commercial hunting
until 1964
and illegal hunting
(poaching) since then.
Original populations of this
giant whale are estimated at 275,000,
while estimates as of 1994
are at less than 5,000 blue whales left.

A
Snow Leopard January 1, 2010
World
Wildlife Fund
SNOW LEOPARD - ENDANGERED SPECIES
Inhabiting the rugged, mountainous terrain
of Central Asia and the Himalayan region,
snow leopards have long hind limbs and
shortened front limbs, which allow them to
leap 20 to 50 feet through the air. The diet
of these cats varies by region and season,
but consists mostly of wild sheep and goats,
and smaller animals such as pikas, zokors
and marmots. Snow leopards are threatened by
habitat loss, diminished food supply,
hunting for the illegal wildlife trade and
revenge killings by herders. WWF works with
local people and supports research and
habitat conservation projects to protect
these beautiful cats throughout their range.

CoveBear Educational
Documentaries Now
In Post-Production
Three new programs
are being worked on at CoveBear, starting off
the New Year in what
Kate Marshall describes as "magical" and "exciting."
The first DVD's
planned release will be in 2010, tentatively entitled
"SEASON OF THE BEAR,
Volume 3: True Bear Stories"
which promises to be
a very interesting program.
Four bear experts in
the Southeastern U.S.
share their
experiences with seeing wild bears up close.
Coming from five
different areas of the bear world,
these guests tell us
bear stories that are true,
funny, surprising,
heart-tugging.
The teller of true
tales are a wildlife biologist,
a bear rehabilitation
caretaker, a painter/author/columnist,
another wildlife
biologist, and a wildlife
photographer.
True to its mission to promote a better
understanding of bears,
Kate Marshall Graphics, Inc. and the folks at
CoveBear will
invite you to walk with them again on their
journey to learning
as much as they can about bears.
For this third in the
series about bears, they will deliver the same
beauty and knowledge
as they did on the first two programs.
The next DVD's
planned release will be in January 2011,
tentatively entitled
"SEASON OF THE BEAR,
Volume 4:
Understanding Bears."
A description of this
video will be
provided as we get
further along.
Also on the drawing
board in 2010,
"Spring Wildflowers of the
Southern Appalachian
Mountains"
- watch for more
news about this
long-awaited beauty!
CoveBear BEAR DVD's Get
A New Design in 2010!
Slight changes have
been made to KMG's bear DVD covers in 2010
that will enhance
their look on the shelf in your home and in the store!
Spectrum colors on
the spines and the addition of bar codes will
play a major part in
the redesign.
