Ebro Delta Natural Park 

From the Catalan Government's Parks of Catalonia pages. The Ebro Delta is one of the most important wetlands in the Western Mediterranean, and it is to be hoped that the trasvase from the river, planned to take water to drier regions in the south of Spain and cancelled by the new Socialist government in 2004, never goes ahead.

Fundación Oso de Asturias 

Charity dedicated to conservation of the Cantabrian Brown Bear. One of its main activities is the Bear Enclosure within the Bosque de Muniellos, where two female bears, Paca and Tola, are kept in semi-wild conditions (they were rescued from poachers and their return to the wild is considered impossible, as they are too accustomed to humans). Bear in mind, so to speak, that visits to the Muniellos Forest are strictly limited to twenty a day, and that the bears will not be visible (they hibernate) from the end of November to the beginning of March.
