The Farallon Islands
The Farallon Islands, vaguely discernible on
the horizon west of San Francisco, are home to huge
seabird colonies and a wealth of animal life. We talk
with Bay Area experts about the Farallon National
Wildlife Refuge, created by President Theodore Roosevelt
over 100 years ago, and about the sharks, whales and
ocean life surrounding it.
