With less than 1% of Canadians living north of the 60th parallel, these northern lands often remain a mystery and a fascination for the Southerners. Not always easily accessible and often inhospitable, various wildlife species have nevertheless wan their bet to survive and make the most of the Arctic environment.
The photo exhibit “Arctic Wildlife Encounters” is intended to show you the diversity of terrestrial and marine species that have adopted the high latitudes as a place of permanent or temporary residence. Of course, the Lord of the Arctic, the polar bear, is there! So are sixteen other species. You may be surprised to recognize some that also live near you! Come and meet them! They are awaiting your visit!
