A full-colour illustrated guide to animals at risk of extinction in Canada, from the Hackmatack-shortlisted illustrator behind Canada Wild._x000D_ _x000D_ From musical songbirds to majestic mammals, many incredible animals call Canada home, but not all of them are thriving here. Canada's Endangered Animals introduces young readers to 12 species at risk of going extinct across the country due to climate change, poaching, disease, and human interference. These include the Gaspésie caribou, a species that once thrived in the Atlantic provinces and now only exists along the coast of Québec; the five-lined skink, a beautiful lizard with a bright blue tail that is being eaten up by ravenous raccoons; and the lonely northern spotted owl—only one of which has been born in the Canadian wild in years._x000D_ Vibrantly illustrated by the artist behind the Hackmatack and Red Cedar-shortlisted Canada Wild, this accessible book for young readers includes profiles of each animal showcasing its habitat, diet, and population number, as well as fascinating facts and a What Are We Doing? section to explain how scientists and citizens are keeping these animals alive. Readers will also find advice on how they can help at home, from building a bat box to planting native flowers, as well as an illustrated map to locate each animal across the country._x000D_ From the beaches of the east to the old growth forests of the west and the Arctic tundra of the north, Canada's Endangered Animals is the perfect guidebook for budding animal rescuers from coast to coast.
