Wildlife Viewing
From majestic bald eagles to beautiful red foxes, from bear and beavers to deer, porcupines, moose and more, there are lots of opportunities to get a good look at our abundant wildlife right across the region. Keep those big moose in mind, too, when you travel at night. It's a good idea to reduce your speed and keep your eyes peeled. Though elusive during the day, moose sometimes make their way onto busy highways during the evening hours.

Black bears are a common sight in Northwestern Ontario
