	Encyclopedia: Montague, Prince Edward Island
		Montague is known mostly for being located close to the greater town of Souris, a source of cocaine for Eastern Kings county.
		Known as the "Garden Province", the island is located in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, east of New Brunswick and north of Nova Scotia from which it is separated by the Northumberland Strait.
		The crest is set on the traditional helmet of heraldry which, in the case of grants to municipalities, is often taken to represent the determination of citizens to safeguard the interests of the community.

	Submission - Montague Island Nature Reserve
		Montague Island, already so important as a refuge and breeding area, will become even more so as our mainland coast increasingly suffers the results of urbanisation and feral predation.
		The island will be doubly affected by more people, more waste and litter, and less natural habitat.
		There needs to be a clause in the Plan of Management limiting the maximum number of people on the island at any one time to 80 (two vessels) and the maximum number of visitors per day should remain at 90 until the penguin colony fully recovers.

	Montague Island marmot: a conservation assessment (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Description: The hoary marmot, from Montague Island, south-central Alaska, was classified as a distinct subspecies based on smaller size and skull characteristics relative to other island and mainland populations.

	Michael McFadyen's Scuba Diving - Montague Island Seals (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		However, Montague Island is home to a large colony of Australian fur seals and New Zealand fur seals that inhabit the rocks and the sea all year round.
		The best spot to dive the Australian fur seals (which are larger than their NZ cousins) used to be in a small channel between the bombora and the land at the very northern end of the island.
		I have dived the island from both places, I would never go from Bermagui again, even though it may sometimes mean that you can get there from Bermagui while Narooma is closed to boats.
