Kodiak, Alaska -
Official Web Page
This is the official
home page for the second largest island of the
U.S.A, Kodiak Island, just off the coast of
Alaska. This island is home to various different
animals, but its most powerful inhabitant is not
man, but the largest carnivore in the world, the
Kodiak bear. This site offers information
regarding the island's economy, culture, history,
government and most importantly the wildlife of
the island. The information in the wildlife
section includes fishing, bears, land mammals,
marine mammals and birds. It even offers a travel
guide to lure Internet users to consider Kodiak
Island as the location for their next vacation.Virtual Whales
This one of the most unique sites on the
Internet. Unlike most education-based web pages,
that have a dull design, this web page has a
different outlook for its users. This organized,
graphical, quick loading web site makes it very
easy for a user searching for information on any
kind of whale to find all that they are looking
for. This web site offers various types of
multimedia for anyone to use to their benefit.
Such multimedia includes movies in AVI and MOV
format, the song of a male humpback whale and
pictures of the marine mammal. This should be the
first web site any whale researcher should visit.
