Oh, my!!! I'd love to see those big whales and seals, they must be gorgeous in the wild!!!Polar bears are much further north than we are. Black bear, however, are pretty much a fact of life in parts of the Vancouver area, mainly those adjacent to the mountains. Spring and fall mostly, they're either coming out of, or about to go into, hibernation and are in search of food. Sadly many many are killed yearly by conservation officers when they're deemed to be a danger because they've become habituated to people. The same people who routinely don't practice "bear aware" rules and leave garbage etc. out where the bears can get to it. It's a big problem.
We also have a very active coastline, lots of wildlife in it's season, humpback whales, sea lions, seals, the aforementioned killer whales. All manner of waterfowl. I guess every place has it's own beauty, the pics you've shown are wonderful!

Shame about bears, we have them, too, not in the cities, obviously, but in the forests, they love corn! They raid the corn fields and eat it A LOT, and break on their way even more!!
