The center of the Island
Did the male, who threatened us loudly,
eventually replace his gentle eyes because he knew that he wouldn't do any harm?
It may be said that "this is an animal feeling".
Like the Galapagos tortoises, humans were used only for life here.
The indigenous peoples of the Island also had minimal
capture as winter clothing and a valuable source of protein,
but now they make a living from marine fish and crabs.
The value of human beings, who had no choice but to kill
and use wild animals around the world,
has come to be questioned as a tourism resource.
I never get tired of watching it.
The humorous scene I forget the cold, but the feeling of pressing the shutter is disappearing.
Camera gloves are still warm in the bag.
Until more than 50 years ago, overfishing continued and it was on the verge of extinction, but thanks to the Nature Maintenance Treaty, the number is increasing.
The Pribilof Islands, known as the Galapagos
in the Northern Hemisphere, breed 1.7 million
fur seals every summer.
I was surprised and stared at the number of surpluses.
A baby who drinks her mother's breast milk is like a puppy.
Even if it falls off the rock, it starts walking again.
I stuffed food in my stomach and went to see the fur seals.
As you approach the beach, you can hear that peculiar cry.
Gently look into the finder from outside the fence to see the life of fur seals.
A few weeks old baby that looks like a black pebble.
Some guys are curving their majestic body toward the heavens.
The clean room has a bed, two chairs and no desk.
The toilet and shower are shared,
but the heating seems to work and
it seems easy to stay.
At 8 o'clock the next morning,
the guide will pick you up.
The only cafeteria on the Island is the airport
employee cafeteria.
The hotel is a simple lodging facility adjacent to the airport. The hotel in the town is said to be under renovation,
but it is old enough to have to be rebuilt.
One minute from the hotel room to the check-in counter.
There is no check-in procedure.
I was given an English note and a room key and it was completed immediately.
It is unthinkable in America, where security is strict.
