Until the 1960s, scholars had no evidence other than the sagas that proved Vikings had reached North America. However, the discovery of Viking house foundations and artifacts at L'Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland, Canada offers proof that Vikings did, in fact, reach North America 1000 years ago!

In May 2003, BSE was diagnosed in a cow in central Alberta. This was the first native-born case of BSE reported on the North American continent. On Dec. 23, 2003, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced that a Holstein cow in Washington had been diagnosed with BSE. The subsequent epidemiological investigation revealed that the cow originated in Canada. Since 1989, the U.S. has prohibited importation of ruminants and most ruminant products from countries affected by BSE.

There have been reports of the bird flu in North America, but it is a different strain that is not as dangerous as the H5N1 virus. So far the deadly virus H5N1 has yet to show up in America. But experts say they wouldn't be surprised if it does. It could come from a wild bird that will carry it in from Asia or Europe as they head back north in the spring to nesting grounds in the Arctic. It may arrive first in far western Canada, Alaska, parts of the U.S.

Actually, Vikings lived in several countries. These notorious sea raiders and explorers hailed from three Scandinavian homelands: Denmark, Norway, and Sweden. The Danes made their mark in the British Isles and along the coastlines of Europe. The Norwegians sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to reach America. And the Swedes traveled up Russian rivers to reach Constantinople and the Orient.

Vikings developed in Scandinavia from the earlier clan-based cultures that formerly lived there. After raiding Europe, many Vikings brought back ideas that changed their culture, making them more like Europeans. By 1050 AD, Viking culture had undergone significant change, especially the conversion of many to Christianity. Afterwards, the descendants of the Vikings called themselves Norwegians, Danes, Swedes or Scandinavians.

Viking burials often used boats like we use caskets today. For the highest status people, large ships were often buried with the dead. Some Vikings preferred to be cremated. But even then, the ashes were buried with artifacts the dead had used in their life, perhaps because the Vikings believed they could reuse these objects in the next life.

Historians say the Viking Age began in 793 AD with the raid on Lindisfarne monastery in England, and ended in 1066 AD with the defeat of the Viking king Harald by English king Harold.

Because some waterfowl and shorebird species migrate between Alaska and Asia and across the Atlantic from Europe, authorities in the wildlife conservation, hunting and medical professions are taking steps to monitor the situation closely and take action if necessary. The probability of the arrival of high pathogenic Asian H5N1 avian flu in North American waterfowl cannot be predicted. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S.

Yes! The biggest buying market in the world is the USA. The biggest search engines cater to the US market so you can get setup to sell from anywhere. 90% + of your traffic will be from the US & you can sell to them without problem because all the dropshippers ship anywhere in the US & most ship to Canada as well. Eventually the EU will be a bigger market, but the diverse language/culture issues are making it harder to sell to this as a unified market.
