		<description><![CDATA[In this family there is one thing which really gets everyone rushing around, and that is dolphins. In the Mar Menor we didn&#8217;t see any dolphins &#8211; they don&#8217;t come into that lagoon &#8211; but Mummy and Daddy were always full of stories about heavisides dolphins here, and pilot whales there. It seems that even [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Beneath the waters of La Gomera there are not only large stretches of sand, but also a plentiful supply of rocky areas. For me, this makes the place very interesting, because I can watch both habitats at the same time and see the very different fish which live in each of them. The bigger fish [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Ship&#8217;s Naturalist is a kind-hearted girl who wouldn&#8217;t hurt a fly. She might catch it and feed it to a toad, of course, but she wouldn&#8217;t swat one. Nor does she eat dead pigs, cows, rabbits, sheep, or chickens &#8211; but she does have a weakness: she loves fish. At the age of four, [...]]]></description>

We reckon it was named by a Frenchman who was seriously impressed with the local sealife. I first heard about the rays while [...]]]></description>

Before I was born, when my family were sailing around in their yacht off West Africa, they decided to try keeping chickens. Captain Cook kept chickens [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Which bird would you reckon is the most common in the Canary Islands? Go on, have a guess. The blackbird? No; there are lots of these &#8211; they are even more common than in Britain, I would think &#8211; but they are not the most abundant bird in the archipelago. Some kind of seagull? No; [...]]]></description>
