This week-end, I was at Tadoussac in Canada. This town is world renowned as the best site to watch whales in North America! For those who have never visited this region, Tadoussac is at the junction of the Saint Lawrence River and the Saguenay River. The interactions of these two rivers generates a high production of organisms that will feed whales, seals and so on. For the protection of this brittle environment, the government of Canada and the one of the province of Quebec had created in the 1970’s two National Parks : the “Saguenay-St.Lawrence marine Park” and the “Fjord-du-Saguenay National Park”. Whale 101 : In America, whales arrive in the North (Canada) to eat from April to September. Afterwards, they go back in the Caribbean islands to reproduce.
