Sea otters are good indicators of ocean health. In addition, they are a keystone species, offering a stabilizing effect on ecosystem, controlling sea urchin populations that would otherwise inflict damage to kelp forest ecosystems. The kelp forest ecosystem is crucial for marine organisms and contains coastal erosion. With the concerns about the imperiled status of sea otter populations in California, Aleutian Archipelago and coastal areas of Russia and Japan, the last several years have shown growth of interest culturally and politically in the status and preservation of sea otter populations. Sea Otter Conservation brings together the vast knowledge of well-respected leaders in the field, offering insight into the more than 100 years of conservation and research that have resulted in recovery from near extinction. This publication assesses the issues influencing prospects for continued conservation and recovery of the sea otter populations and provides insight into how to handle future global changes. - Covers scientific, cultural, economic and political components of sea otter conservation - Provides guidance on how to manage threats to the sea otter populations in the face of future global changes - Highlights the effects that interactions of coastal animals have with the marine ecosystem

Ellie LeRoux spent her first sixty-nine years struggling, often unsuccessfully, to figure out life. But when she was forced to endure a family crisis that included her husband’s and daughter’s concurrent cancer diagnoses, Ellie embarked on a spiritual journey, with help from her friend, Shirley, that transported her from fear and self-hatred toward love and self-acceptance. In Your Friend, Leyland, Ellie shares a candid story of her experiences through several stages of life. Divided into three parts, Ellie begins by chronicling the first twelve conversations, channeled by Shirley, with the spirit group, Leyland, that include anecdotes, communications with Leyland, and poems penned by Shirley. As Ellie leads others through the next seventeen years of her life, she reveals how she learned to refocus on Leyland’s powerful message, written by or sometimes shared through Shirley. Finally, she shares vignettes of life-affirming insights that radiate Leyland’s message of hope and spiritual growth, ultimately revealing how perceptions color our understanding of ego, spirit, purpose, and reality. Your Friend, Leyland shares the touching story of one woman’s experiences as her loving spirit guide leads her on an unending path of rebirth to seek her higher self.

Far off the coast of California looms a harsh rock known as the island of San Nicholas. Dolphins flash in the blue waters around it, sea otter play in the vast kep beds, and sea elephants loll on the stony beaches. Here, in the early 1800s, according to history, an Indian girl spent eighteen years alone, and this beautifully written novel is her story. It is a romantic adventure filled with drama and heartache, for not only was mere subsistence on so desolate a spot a near miracle, but Karana had to contend with the ferocious pack of wild dogs that had killed her younger brother, constantly guard against the Aleutian sea otter hunters, and maintain a precarious food supply. More than this, it is an adventure of the spirit that will haunt the reader long after the book has been put down. Karana's quiet courage, her Indian self-reliance and acceptance of fate, transform what to many would have been a devastating ordeal into an uplifting experience. From loneliness and terror come strength and serenity in this Newbery Medal-winning classic.
