Marty’s photo of the day #4491: This is a tiny section of the Porcupine caribou migration, the longest terrestrial migration of any animal on Earth. I shot this photo in 2002, while traveling for my first book, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents. This spot is in Canada’s Northwest Territories, which, unfortunately, is […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4406: It’s been 21 years since Deb’s and my epic trip to the top of Canada, which was featured in my first book, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents. The drive from Montana is longer than driving from New York City to Los Angeles and back. This photo […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4072: I shot this photo many years ago, when Deb and I spent a day hiking with the Porcupine caribou migration in Canada’s Northwest Territories. Roughly 200,000 caribou take part in the 1,500 mile round trip between Canada and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska. It is the longest […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4055: Deb and I are hoping to give our dog, Nellie, her first taste of life above the Arctic Circle sometime next year. And, if we are lucky, hike with the Porcupine caribou migration again. There’s no feeling like being miles away from the nearest human, surrounded by whatever nature […]

Marty’s photo of the day #3271: I took this scenic photo way-north in Canada’s Northwest Territories. Here, it’s too far north for trees to grow, and if you look closely you can see a tiny section of the great Porcupine caribou migration.
Marty’s photo of the day #2683: I took this photo in Canada’s Northwest Territories. If you look carefully, you can see hundreds of Porcupine caribou, in the midst of their 800 mile-long migration—the longest of any land animal. Later, Deb and I would meet up with the caribou and hike with them for a short […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2594: This is a tiny segment of the Porcupine caribou migration. These caribou migrate between Canada and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska. Their 800 mile-long migration is the longest of any land animal on Earth. Now that the Republican cult and Rut Leader Trump have opened up the […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2401: I took this photo in the Yukon Territory. This is a small section of the Porcupine caribou migration. Traveling more than 700 miles between Canada and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, in Alaska, it is the longest terrestrial migration on Earth. Of course now that the sinister Republican tax […]
