| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The fauna of Canada is considered to be diverse across Canada. Canada has multiple ecosystems, ranging from the lush forests of British Columbia, to the prairies of western Canada, to the tundra of northern Canada. The flora of Canada is quite diverse, due to the wide range of ecoregions and environmental conditions present in Canada. From the warm, temperate broadleaf forests of southern Ontario to the frigid Arctic plains of northern Canada, from the wet temperate rainforests of the west coast to the arid deserts, badlands and tundra plains, the biodiversity of Canada's plants is extensive. This book studies Canadian fauna and flora including Canadian horses, beavers, painted turtles, and spotted salamanders.
