... Many large mammals, such as bighorn sheep, elk, black bears and grizzly bears, are regularly seen, thrilling park visitors.
The prairies, stretching across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, once supported huge herds of bison. Today, these animals are not as numerous as they once were, but existing herds give us a chance to experience these large and magnificent mammals.
Canada’s north also has spectacular wildlife viewing for the photographer. Mammals such as polar bears, arctic foxes and wolves inhabit the northern part of the country, as well as large herds of caribou. Churchill, Manitoba is a destination for many photographers to get acquainted with northern wildlife.
Many mammals are widespread across Canada, and are often spotted along highways, such as moose, coyotes, bears and beavers.
Canada has outstanding bird life. In the Maritimes, one can go on bird tours to take pictures of marine birds such as northern gannets and Atlantic puffins.
Canada is a choice destination for wildlife viewing and photography, and this country’s stunning mammals, birds and other creatures will leave visitors spellbound.
