endangered species list for many years, the Bald Eagle has made an amazing come-back to
most of the states in North America thanks to people who care about our planet.

Brown and Black Bears of North America
Take a serious step into the world of this czar of the wilderness. Meet the Grizzly, also known as
a coastal brown bear, and find out what it is capable of. This is a show of understanding how
bears communicate and how to communicate with bears in a way that they understand. Learn

make them unique. This is a fun show for everyone even if you never plan on going into the
woods.

Two of our more unique pelagic ocean birds presented in a light, fact-filled show certain to give
you some great natural history information while entertaining you as well. Meet them at the nest
and on the wing, in the water, and no...they don't sing. Sometimes known as a sea parrot, the
puffin is a fascinating alcid well worth meeting even if you never travel to the coast.

Kangaroos and Wallabys
Come on mates! Let's have a bit of a walkabout and meet some of Australia's famous
marsupials. Find out just how far and high a giant red can jump and how kangaroos got their
common name. Meet some tree climbing wallabys and find out how a mob survives when a
predator is nearby. Stop, listen, look around, bounce away! This is a fun show for all ages.

Koalas
"Kill a koala, make a fortune!" Use to be the moto of fortune seeking Australians during the war.
Present day koalas are still in trouble as their prime pieces of habitat disappear to sub-divisions
and housing developments through the near outback. Learn the call of the "old man" and find out
what joeys eat when they are young. Intoxicated all the time, sleep all day and play all night, this
is a true Australian if you would really like to meet one.

Komodo Dragons of Indonesia
Truly one of the great reptiles of our planet, the komomdo would love to have you for dinner, but I
wouldn't recommend you consider the invitation! Able to eat a 30 pound pig in just minutes, the
komodo's table manners are a bit savage for most. Some spectacular video footage combined
with some seriously up-close still images make this a show you will not soon forget.

Penguins of South America and the Falkland Islands
There are actually two possible shows under this title. I have a presentation just about the King
Penguins and another that discusses the Magellanics. Both are amazing shows full of facts and
humor. These shows will make you feel like you are on the set of another "March of the
Penquins" film as the up-close video and stills are truly inspiring. Be part of the egg laying and
care taking process with me. Take a close look at their physiology and behaviors as well. This is
one of my more popular shows out on the cruise ships and it is now available to you on land.
