Collection: Northwest Territories Native Animals

The Northwest Territories are vast and open, with shimmering lakes, tundra plains, and forested river valleys. Small mammals, native pollinators, and migratory birds take advantage of the long summer days, while larger wildlife moves across the open land in search of seasonal food. Amphibians and reptiles are rare but present in the warmer months. Life here follows the strong pulse of the changing seasons, from brief summers to deep, quiet winters.
