National Parks as Wildlife Havens in Canada
Canada protects wildlife in its national parks with hunting bans. At Jasper in Alberta, 4400 square miles host bears, deer, moose, and bison. Wainwright’s buffalo herd grew from 716 to about 8000, prompting slaughter of 2000 this fall and relocation of 2000 calves next spring, while elk and yak multiply. Visitors may glimpse grizzly, caribou, bighorn sheep, and mountain goats, as sanctuary programs teach youth about conservation and may offset costs through buffalo meat and hides sales.
