Talk:Samuel Hearne

Please a photo of that stone with his name on it (see article): On 1 July 1767 he chiseled his name on smooth, glaciated stone at Sloop's Cove near Fort Prince of Wales where it remains today. --Carl Steinbeißer (talk) 18:39, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Darwin quote.
In North America the black bear was seen by Hearne swimming for hours with widely open mouth, thus catching, like a whale, insects in the water. Even in so extreme a case as this, if the supply of insects were constant, and if better adapted competitors did not already exist in the country, I can see no difficulty in a race of bears being rendered, by natural selection, more and more aquatic in their structure and habits, with larger and larger mouths, till a creature was produced as monstrous as a whale.

Is the full quote from the first edition of "Origin of species" by Darwin and not the excised quote from revised editions.
