In southern Yukon, they have had ice melting recently and there's a big patch that's melted and underneath it, they found all this caribou dung that's been sitting there held in the ice.

Other times Yukon came up

  1. Sounds British to me. I was actually on Drunk Animals, which I know we mentioned, and we love. There was a story this week about Bohemian waxwing birds in Yukon in Canada, and they've been getting really drunk on fermented berries this year. The National Park in Canada, Yukon Wildlife Sanctuary, has set up rehab centres for them. If you see, they advertise over it, if you see one of these drunk birds, you've got to take it to the rehab centre and say it's a drunk bird, and they put it in this little cage, and they let it sober up until it's responsible enough to be able to fly on its own again.
