DETAILS: From October through December, Travis Layton says he likes to kayak on B.C.’s Cowichan Bay as much as possible. “I look for gulls because they love to eat scraps from sea lion kills, telling me where sea lions are feeding,” says the Vancouver Island adventure guide. To kill a salmon, Layton explains, a sea lion will smash it against the water with such force it breaks into pieces, as pictured here.

PRIZE: Thermacell Mosquito Repellent Pack
