occurring in the Alton
Forest is astounding:
strands of Eastern Hernlock
and Balsam fir blend with
Eastern White Cedar and
Blue Beech swamps. which
in turn, transform into
forests of Sugar Maple,
Beech. Birch and Ash. The
forest also harbours a
myriad of wildlife species,
from Red -shouldered
Hawks to Red -backed
Salamanders.
Seemingly. the Altona
Forest represents a
microcosm of a much
larger natural region; an
incredible prospect when
one considers that this
forest exists within the bus-
tle of a relatively
developed community.
There is a good chance
that this forest will soon be
toppled for the purpose of
development. A large part
of the Altona Forest is own-
ed by a prolific developer,
and for many years,
Bramalea Limited has
argued its right to build a
subdivision on the Altona
property.
Supported by a majority
of Pic kering's mnunicipal
council members,
Bramalea Ltd., along with
other developers, con-
tinually pressure the town
to accept their applications
to proceed with the clear -
ing of Alioma Forest.
In recent weeks,
developers have joined
forces with local trade
unions, tabour groups and
builder's associations in an
effort to secure permission
to proceed with planned
developments.
Although council
meetings are always well
attended by concerned
area residents opposed to
development in the forest,
biased political tactics are
consistently evidenced
among some council
members, whose
predisposition with the
development of the Altona
Forest seems to dismiss
legitimate ecological
values and true community
opinions.
A critical principle. con-
sistently overlooked by
Bramalea and other
developers, is the fun-
damental principle of
ecological in-
terdependence. Everything
in nature is connected to
everything else. One of the
most important reasons
that the Altona Forest re-
quires preservation is that
its location facilitates
wildlife movement bet-
ween the Rouge, Petticoat
and Duffin systems.
The Altona Forest also
provides a suburban haven

Currently, the case for

and Environment Minister

blueprints. and with the re-
cent support of Pickenng

About Ontario Hydro
Dear Editor
Ontario Hydro is presently facing a host of probkmis, not
the least of which is its staggering $36 billion debt. This year
there is a 12% rate Increase. Last year it was over 15%, and
next year it will be 8%. The main mason for these rate in-
creases is nuclear power. Nuclear reactors are expensive
to build and operate. Respite these problems, Ontario
Hydro is proposing to rebuild the four reactors at the Bruce
"A" Nuclear Generating Statim on the shore of Lake
Huron. Hydro claims that this will cost about $3 billion• but
environmental groups believe this is underestimated, and
that it could mount to $5 billion.
Ontario Hydro is proposing to cut back on conservation,
and freeze new power from alternative sources. Instead of
using these cheaper. cleaner alternatives. Ontario Hydro
continues to rely on nuclear power.
Phasing out nuclear power is not just a question of
money. As Ontario Hydro's reactors grow older. they also
become more dangerous. There have already been serious
accidents that could have led to a meltdown. The risk of a
nuclear disaster increases daily.
A safe and sustainable energy future for Ontario does not
include nuclear power. Ontario Hydro should not rebuild
the Bruce "A" Nuclear Generating Station. Permanent
workers at the station should be offered retraining, alter-
nate jobs and transfers within Hydro.
Yours sincerely,
David H. Martin

What "Democratization"
Of Hospitals Means
b% Dennis R. Timbrell
President of Ontario Hospital Association
According to every major opinion poll. the vast majority
of Ontarians are happy with the way their hospitals are run.
Communities see their hospitals as local resources of which
they are justifiably proud.
Most hospitals in this province are independent, non-
profit corporations governed by boards of local citizens.
These volunteer boards• responsible for overseeing the in-
stitutions, ensure that hospitals remain responsive to the
needs of their communities.
Yet the Ontario government is now contemplating
changes to the system. It held a series of public consulta-
lions this summer• and plans to introduce a new Public
Hospitals Act later in the year.
Provincial Health Minister Frances Lankin insists that
reform is needed. "I am not yet satisfied that we have
learned how to involve employees meaningfully in ad-
ministrative decision making so that hospitals become
more democratic as workplaces." she said. "We need to
discuss the concept of elected boards and or boards with
designated directors from stakeholder groups."
Certainly• the existing system can be improved. The On-
tano Hospital Association promotes the need for more
openness and accountability in the way hospitals are
governed today. But to suggest that the system is somehow
undemocratic, and therefore in need of wholesale reform, is
a breathtaking leap of illogic.
Behind the rhetoric and the window-dressing. what
"democratization" really rneans is the politicization of the
hospital system. It means the loss of volunteerism, the
creation of yet another level of paid public service, and the
intrusion of the provincial government into local decision-
making. Hospitals will become battlegrounds for political
control if Queen's Park insists on pursuing this dangerous
course.
The existing system may not be perfect. bill it is certainly
better than elections or government appointments to
hospital boards. The more than 4,0110 men and women who
stow donate their time. energy and expertise as hospital
trustees do so because they carr about their communities -
not because they represent a special interest. a political
party or a particular ideology•.
Replacing these volunteers with elected officials wound
certainly necessitate costs. Taxpayers would have to pay
for the salaries. staff and offices of elected trustees (as they
do for school board trustees i. Elected boards could seek
local tax -raising authority. And the hundreds of millions of
dollars raised every year through the community efforts of
volunteers would have to be found elsewtrere.
In addition. hospitals could Comte under the control of
special interest groups (such as unimpia, pro -choice or anti-
abortion advocates, and other single issue organizations) in
the evertt of direct elections. Rather than patient carr being
the paramount concern. the narrow interests of various
constituents would take precedence. Is this the kind of
hospital syst I - we w•ant - where heahh pre takes a back
seat to political opportunism-
Government -appointed boards would be little more than
adjuncts of Queen's Park. Their existing autonomy weld be
uundernuned, and trustees would awe allegiance not to their
communities but to the provincial government of the day.
In this scenario• who would take a stand against the
!Ministry of Health over issues important to the delivery of
local hospital services'
The Provincial Health Minister appears to have rejected
the steering committee report, titled "into the 21st
Century". which recommended, after almost three years of
study. that the voluntary system of hospital governance be
preserved. Instead. she seems convinced that existing
boards are neither adequately representative of. nor suffi-
ciently accountable to. their communities.
I suspect that most O ntanans would disagree with this
view. The many volunteers across the province who
selflessly give of their time, who help with important fun-
draising efforts and provide leadership to their hospitals,
have earned the support and respect of their communities.
Would elected or appointed hoards perform as well.,
$13.6 Million To Revitalize and Expand
Ontario's .apprenticeship Training System
A major initiative to revitalize and expand Ontario's ap-
prenticeship training system has been announced by
Richard Allen, Ontario Minister of Skills Development.
"Apprenticeship is Ontario's principal workplace train-
ing system," said Minister Allen. "More than 53,000 ap-
Prentices and 25,000 employers are involved in appren-
ticeship training. A highly skilled workforce is one of the
best ways to encourage higher value added activity in On-
tario.
The Ministry will invest more than $13.6 million on im-
provements to the apprenticeship system. This will provide
the Ontario Training and Adjustment Board (OTAB), cur-
rently in development, with a strengthened training system
upon which to build.

Metro Toronto Wins Over San Diego In Waste Reduction
Metro residents have
proven that when they put
their minds to it, they can
achieve nothing. And they
did. They reduced their
waste to almost nothing
during Metro Toronto's
Zero Garbage Day
Challenge with the City of
San Diego on Wed. Sept.
30th.
The numbers prove it.
Metro's Challenge Line
received 4,816 telephone
calls, surpassing San
Diego's total of 59 calls.
These 59 calls generated
requests for over 83,000
anti -junk mail cards.
Metro's flag and a Toronto
Blue Jays cap are on their
way to the City of San
Diego, to remind their
residents that we out -
reduced, out -reused and
out -recycled them, hands
down.
How did Metro residents
do it? Simple. By reducing
their garbage and then
calling Metro's Challenge
Line to register how they
did it.
One resident reported
that she collected 200 wire
-coat hangers to be reused
at her dry cleaners, while
another resident is turning
used corks into a chess set.
John Woolfrey, from the
Mill Valley Public School in
Etobicoke reported, "We
produced aero garbage in
our staff lunchroom of 14
teachers, and 110 students
reduced their lunchroom
garbage by 50 percent by
using reusable containers,
cloth napkins and saving
food waste for
composting-"
Works Chairman and
Metro Councillor Joan
King makes aero waste her
goal every day. "I make
sure everything that can be
recycled is recycled, and
not just by me, but by my
entire staff. At home,
plastic containers are sav-
ed and reused.'.
Besides wearing a Blue
Jays cap and personally
raising Metro's flag at
their City Hall, where it
will fly for one day, Mayor
Maureen O'Connor will
send Metro's Chairman
Alan Tonks a gift basket
filled with goods that repre-
sent San Diego. Once
received by the
THE
Chairman's office, the
basket and its contents will
be donated to charity.
Residents interested in
learning how they can con-
tinue to make the 3rs -
Reduce, Reuse and Recy-
cle - a part of their every
day lives can call Metro
Toronto's Waste Informa-
tion Line for help at
3924546. A 3Rs handbook,
called Beyond the Blue
Box, is available in
English, Chinese, French,
and Italian.

Bill Watt's Worlds
IN THE CLUBS:
Describing an evening of
comedic sketches is as
elusive as trying to
describe a flavour. A
chocolate lover cannot
describe the flavour of
chocolate. One can say it's
delicious but simply cannot
describe the flavour. One
can say it's like another
such and such but that still
doesn't describe the
flavour.
Second City's 34th and
latest revue has just open-
ed. It's titled Northern
Foreclosure and it's
hilarious. There' It's
hilarious.4lut, how is it so'
Short of printing the script.
we can't tell you. Even if
the script were available, it
still couldn't conjure up the
skill of the performers
delivering the lines: how
thev can crack wise, do fine
takes and even. mug.
The best this humble
scribbler can do is make an
attempt at describing what
one will see when in atten-
dance for Northern
Foreclosure. Be aware that
this is physically difficult
for us because our n b cage
is still aching from
Laughter. Is there such a
thing as insurance against
ribs cracking from too
much laughter'
There are a score of brief
sketches. character pieces
and blackouts. The fust
sketch is of God introduc-
ing himself to )clary where
she is wori ing in a library.
Some might find it
tasteless but still laugh at
Mary's annoyance over the
fact that the creator can't
"hang around after"
'cause there arc "other
things to take care of'.
Those are probably not the
correct words but the
meaning is the same and
it's hilarious.
The Final sketch is
Blooming of the Rouse in
which a young television
hopeful joins friend as they
go off to see Moses. the
Wizard of CITY -'i1'.
In between these pieces
there are. among others,
the following.
A sketch in which two
Americans visit Toronto in
a sprit of friendliness.
They are befriended by
Comrade Bob of Queen's
Park but are eventually
told to '-Go home you fur-
riner! You don't belong
here' . We can but approx
imate in print the false
teeth guttural of so many
East Indians. The young
Lady who delivers the line is
seen as the same character
in another piece as well.
Her name is Mrs. Goatkuri.
Say it slowly.
Then there's the newly
divorced man describing
the delights of his "base-
ment, beaches" apart-
ment. . . just north of the
Danforth.
There 's the bit in which
the Marmora Town Council
tries to sell the idea of a
gambling casino to be built
on the site of the local In-
dian reserve. Among op-
ponents is a beery,
dreadlocked brave who
declaims that from now on
the town can get its own
cigarettes. at regular
prices.
As we say, these are only
a sampling of the twenty or
so other works. Mondays
through Thursdays, there
is an extra improvisational
W as well.
Here are the performers.
The only significance of
naming them is that we in-
sist upon ladies first.
Judith Scott is a tawny
beauty adept with dialects.
(She's Mrs. Goatkuh.) Jen-
ny Parsons is a toothsome
one who rather reminds of
a young. very young Nancy
Walker. Kathryn Green-
wood is rather more in the
Catherine O'Hara mould,
slim and wiry.
Brian Smith is a good
looking young man who
doubles on guitar. Chris
Earle is as blonde as Mr.
Smith is dark. He rather
makes one think that Tom
Henke is moonlighting,
Ed Sanely can portray
virtually any kind of
character and Nick Johne
has a sort of stub moronic
diarm about turn that quite
belies his skill with a seem-
ing throw away line.
More than excellent
musical accompaniment is
given by Bob Derkach at
the piano. One suspects
he's a good stage per-
former himself judging by
hits spot on musical cues
and the snoods they help
evoke.
There it is then. An at-
tempted review of Nor-
thern Foreclosure. One
hopes it has worked but you
really have to see the show

Night and The City
(Twentieth Century -Fox)
opens this Friday in
theatres across Canada.
It's a remake of the
original which was
directed by the over rated
Jules Dassin and stars the
equally over rated Robert
De :Niro.
Paraphrasing Robert
Benchley. it isn't that he
can't be a good actor; it's
just that he can't guess
he'll be one. He has
developed a bag of facial
tricks -the kind that could
work for Charles Laughton -
and does them to death in

virtually every film. And,
oh yes, there's his hesitant
mumble that passes for
naturalism, like those "hid-
den camera" commer-
cials. He doesn't act; he
performs.
He's at it again in Night
And, this time as Harry Fa-
bian, a Manhattan tin horn
lawyer with dreams of self
esteem to be achieved in
any way possible and by
any means. In this case,
it's as the promoter of a
boxing card filled with gym
hopefuls. There could be
some spark of decency in
the character but not as
performed by Mr. De Niro.
His Harry Fabian is little
more than a Pal Joey. And,
the latter could sing and
dance, Harry just
grimaces.
The real "reel actors here

reliables.

can be as brassy classy as
an early Angela Lansbury
while still flashing the
dewy-eyed innocence of a

Jack Warden as an ex -
boxer not only has the
stumble mouth speech of

has the moves. a eniinte&ng
one and all that he truly is a
former boxer. .a middle
weight as we seem to
recall. That's why he was
so good misty years ago is
Golden Boy.
Alan King -and
rernernber he had made it
as an actor long before he
became a premier stand up
comedian -is all controlled
intensity as a crooked pro-
moter. Quick observation:
He has balded himself for
the movie and now looks
remarkably like the late
King Clancy -
Cliff Gorman is typical
louver class Manhattanite
as the cuckolded tavern
keeper. Eli Wallach is in
vintage form as a loan
shark.
Extra notice. too, for
Byrne Utley as a dance
dub frisker. Dark, mean,
and mocking. he's the kind
of sub human that causes
revulsion in civilized peo-
ple; rioting in others.
Taken all in all N. and the

cent programmer except
for Robert De Niro as
Harry Fabian and the
lingering fear that we're

to Nov. 14th, "Snow White"
on from Nov. 28 to Jan. 23rd
and "The Princess & The
Pea" from Feb. 6th to Apr.
23rd 1993.
There is also a twist in
that these episodic series
are linked with Malcolm,
apprentice to the world's
"Keeper Of All Stories" as
he travels from tale to tale
to correct mistakes he
made in the stories.

if all follow the same pat-
tern they are cacique, in-

presented by Adam Fur -

The show uses young ac-
tors who are just coming
into professional theatre or
who are in training. at a
theatre school, so there is a
high standard of acting for
a children's show.
The "all you can eat"
lunch buffet is a children's
delight of hamburgers, hot
dogs, pizza, and french
fries along with salads and
desserts. It's the same
price for both children and
adults 113.50+ taxes.
There is free birthday
cake and the birthday per-

selected cast member. An
ideal show for the 5 to 11
year old crowd and a
tremendous place for
parents and grandparents

Nice to realize that the
19th season of Opera in
Concert is upon us. As the
title implies, this is a series
of concert performances of
operas that are too rarely
seen. Many of them are in-
sufferably expensive to
produce with full scale
values. That should not
mean. however, that their
music should not be heard
in person.
This Saturday and Sun-
day, Opera in Concert
presents the Canadian
premiere of Maria Paddila
by Donizetti, in Italian. The
first performance is at 8
p.m. and the second is a
matinee at 2 p.m. Both are
at the Jane Mallett Theatre

It, the box office, is quite
a building, almost too good.
Constructed in the design
of a southern river

looking as to be just a tad
offputting.
Showboats weren't really
grand looking but people
think they were and could
be disappointed at the
authentically replicated
edifice now on view.

our part but we'd like to see

to review
The Proposed Emery Creek
Stormwater Quality Facility
The Metro Works Department is reviewing methods to improve the
quality of stormwater which flows into the Humber River. This study will
produce a preliminary design for a stormwater facility to improve the
quality of the water flowing from Emery Creek into the Humber River.
(Please see map below). It will include evaluation of urban run-off from
residential, industrial and commercial sources.
Based on the work completed by an earlier study, a recommendation has
been made to construct a stormwater retention pond in the valley lands
adjacent to St. Lucie Park. Alternate forms of stormwater quality control
will be considered as part of this study. If constructed, the facility would
be operated as a pilot project. The study follows the process set out in
the Class Environmental Assessment for Municipal Sewage and Water
Projects, as approved by the Ministry of the Environment.
The Purpose of the Open House and Meeting is to:
e provide background information and indicate alternatives currently
being considered.
es enable you to discuss those plans with your neighbours, Metro Works
Staff and Project consultants and to provide input into the process.
Date: Tuesday October 27,1992
Time: Open House 6:30 to 9:00 p.m.
Meeting 7:30 p.m.

Homework
Venturing into the United
States market doesn't work
if executives haven't done
their homework. That was
one of the main messages
of Ernst & Young, Toronto
Director of U.S. Tax, Dan
DuFon and Senior Tax
Manager Ron Friesen, who
spoke to business ex-
ecutives at the Sheraton
East Hotel on Kennedy
Road on Oct. 8th.
The seminar, "Doing
Business in the United
States," sponsored by the
Scarborough Chamber of
Commerce was hosted by
the accounting and con-
sulting firm's Toronto
Metro East office.
Some entrepreneurs. for
starters, will use a low key
approach when they enter
the U.S. market, says
Friesen. "They make up
their mind to enlist
specialists only if the pro-
duct is successful," he
says. "But sometimes
that's too late and not all of
the strategies and issues
Small businesses have,
for some tithe. been the
leadie s in job creation in
Canada. and are a segment
of the business population
that is certainly integral to
the dynamic commerce
community in North York.
Now, The City of North
York's Property &
Economic Development
Department is presenting
the first in an annual series
of seminars aimed at the
small busine m decision -
maker - North York Small
Business '92 to be held at
the North York Civic Cen-
tre Oct. 29th and 3Dth.
This showcase of
seminars, workshops and
guest speakers add up to an
incredible opportunity for
small business education,
have been explored. The
result is a failed - and
sometimes costly -
venture."
A far more effective
method is to decide from
the beginning just what the
issues are. Then decide
which of the many methods
of entering the market is
right for you, he says. A
businessman can market
and finance a product or
service in the U.S. in a
number of different ways.
Some of these methods in-
clude subsidiaries, bran-
ches, manufacturing
agents, and partnerships.
Buying an existing com-
pany is also an option, says
DuFon.
Two of the most impor-
tant issues will be to deter-
mine how to finance the
venture and where will it
operate. say DuFon and
Friesen. Then there will be
the myriad of details to be
taken cane of before the
paperwork is completed.
-- ---sem-- —__— __ __- - �_.._._._..�..._•_•_•�,�,..,� .._..�,m,ae;�si;:,, . a,.a.�ii.
Tax specialists have to
figure out the different tax
laws which are different in
each of the States. Then
there are technical details
to consider involving
transfer pricing, tariff bar-
riers, and returning profits
to Canada.
It's difficult to say if Free
Trade has been a con
tributing factor to the in-
crease in interest in the
U.S., says Friesen. In some
instances, the FTA might
fnake it easier to launch a
product or services south of
the border. The higher
Canadian dollar and higher
wage costs are two reasons
why manufacturers are
tempted by business south
of the border, he says.
"Among the many myths
and surprises. there is one
point that is clear - expert
advice and advance plann-
ing are the best way to
avoid any traps for Cana-
dian businesses,.* he says.

Today more and more
people in every organiza-

Referrals Business Network
When was the last time
you had breakfast with a
financial advisor, a musi-
cian, a chartered accoun-
tant, a lawyer, an image
consultant, and a jewellery
designer, all on the same
day?
"The first Tuesday of
every month," say par-
ticipants in the Referrals
Business Network for
women. Once a month for a
year now, the Referrals
Network has been meeting
over breakfast at the On-
tario Club. The women
come from a wide variety
of businesses, but each has
the same goal - to connect
with other women in
business. And the bigger
the network becomes, the
more opportunity for
business contacts.
To celebrate its first an-
niversary, Referrals is
having a cocktail reception
for both members and non-
members ( this event is also
open to men), on Oct. 23rd
at 7 p.m. at the Ontario
Club, 5th floor, Commerce
Court South (NE corner of
Bay and Wellington Sts.,
Toronto). Tickets are $2o
and include hors d'oeuvres,
cake and champagne. Cash
bar. For information or
tickets call 658-3161.
Referrals was co-
founded by Lina Addesi, an
image consultant,
Christina Mizur, an il-
lustrator and designer,
Dianne Robinson, an enter-
tainment coordinator, and
Tina Graham, an interior
design consultant.
Referrals is an excellent
way to make business con-
tacts and to develop per-
sonal excellence," Addesi
says. "But you can't expect
to make your fortune on
your first time out.
Establishing business con-
tacts takes time but it can
be very rewarding in many
areas, not only financial."
A Referrals membership
is $30 annually, which in-
cludes reduced rates at
monthly breakfast
meetings and free advertis-
ing in the monthly newslet-
ter.
For more information
contact Lina Addesi at
( 416) 658-3161.

Sega dancers and Mauri-
tian chefs will be on hand to

gram this month at the

Mauritius operations world
wide.
The island of 'Mauritius.
which lies 700 kms east of
Madagascar in the Indian
Ocean• provides a wealth of
experiences and sights to
tempt even the most jaded
traveller. Anyone seeking
something excitingly dif-
ferent would do well to
head for Mauritius, the
latest destination to be
discovered by those in the
know from Europe and
beyond.
The island nation's
historic tradition harks
back mote than L% years.
when the fust inhabitants
arrived. Today Mauritius
is a cultural melange of In-
dians. Hindus. Creoles,
Muslims. French and
Chinese, reflecting British,
French. African and Asian
cultures. As a former
British colony, English is
the official language,
although French and
Creole are commonly
spokM.
The launch week will in-
clude exciting menus

chefs flown in for the pro-
motion. Sega dancers ac-
compamed by a Mauritian
bard will entertain in the
evenings. A walk-through
fashion parade will take
Place at noon time in the
dining morns of the par-
ticipating Holiday Inns.
Mauritius in the matter
of taste is sensuous: it
plays to an international
palate. Expect culinary
surprises when several
cultures converge and
shock the most jaded of
palates. Indian and Creole
curries, French nouvelle

Air Mauritius is facing
tremendous challenges as
it breaks new ground.
George Papamoros, Na-
tional Sales Manager for
Air :Mauritius in Canada,
based in Toronto says that
"access to the island of
Mauritius is as easy as an
evening flight to London.
Paris or home. connecting
to a non-stop Air Mauritius
flight to the dramatic
island in the Indian
Ocean."
Mr. Papamoros went on
to say that people may be
asJung the question: Given
the current state of the
travel and tourism in-
dustry, with many airlines
retrenching in the crake of
the Gulf War and reces-
sion. w•hy is Air Mauritius

"Air Mauritius' ap-
proach to market develop-
ment is focused on the long-
term. We believe %orth
America has considerable
potential as an off-line
market, which can only be
developed by provit Ing
necessary programs and
testing the market.- he
said.
Air Mauritius provides
regular service from
several European capitals:
London, Paris, Rome,
Geneva. Munich, Zurich.
as well as Bombay. Hong

Baby Otter Gets New
Hope At Sea World
A tiny, Asian Small -
Clawed otter - a rare and
endangered species - is now
being carefully hand -
raised by one of Sea World
of Florida's animal care
specialists. In Sea World's
otter rehabilitation pro-
gram. hand -raising is a
technique often used by the
marine life park's husban-
dry experts to assist lost or
abandoned baby animals
until they are old enough to
survive on their own.
Sea World curators step-
ped in shortly after
Bailey's birth to give him a
helping hand. The five-
week old male pup was in
danger of becoming
malnourished. -This was
his mother's first litter,
and she had no experience
in rearing her young," said
Steve Lang, Sea World
animal care specialist and
"surrogate father" to the
otter. "Because this
species of otter is en-
dangered, we couldn't take
any chances with Bailey's
survival."
The welfare of the Asian
Small -Clawed otter is also
supported by the Species
Survival Plan l SSP l , in
which Sea World par-
ticipates. Established by
the American Association
of Zoological Parks and
Aquariums, the SSP pro-
gram helps preserve en-
dangered species by main-
taining viable gene pods in
breeding programs. it is
often the last chance to re-
establish a species in its
natural environment.
Hamel -raising a baby ot-
ter is round-the-clock
responsibility and includes
constant monitoring of the
animal's health, daily
baths and frequent
feedings. Like most babies.
Bailey requires lots of nur-
turing. "He can't be left for
very long by himself and he
needs a lot of attention,"
said Lang.
During bath time, a
damp cotton ball is used to
simulate the natural feel-
ing of a mother otter clean-
ing her young. To feed the
one pound pup, every four
hours, Lang uses a small
bottle to give Bailey a mix-
ture of water and Esbilack.
a vitamin -enriched for-
mula used as a milk
substitute. Gradually, over
the next three months,
Bailey will be introduced to
solid fish, including trout
