Bear Catching Crabs

While looking for signs of coastal wolves, Bertie Gregory stumbles across some rather odd behavior - a male black bear flipping massive rocks along the coastline. As Bertie gets closer, he realizes that this clever bear has figured out a way to score an easy meal.

Bald Eagles

These skilled hunters have vision about five times sharper than our own and can reach speeds of up to 100 miles per hour when diving for their prey. Join Bertie as he gets up close and personal with these bald eagles as they show off their lightning-fast hunting skills.

Ep 6

Sea Lions

Aug 31, 2016

This week Bertie Gregory is getting wet. Steller sea lions are one of the largest predators in the waters of Vancouver Island and today, Bertie is getting up close and personal with them. On land, sea lions are big and clumsy looking, but in the water, they lengthen out and come alive. They need to be agile-the big males need to catch more than a hundred pounds of fish a day just to survive. The question is, How will these big bulls react when Bertie puts on a wet suit?
