Learning to identify the species and their various roles in our
ecosystem makes outdoor experiences, from walking about your neighbourhood to a
visit to a national park, much more meaningful. Ontario Nature Guide
features over 380 species of plants and animals that you will commonly
encounter:
- mammals
- birds
- amphibians and reptiles
- fish
- invertebrates
- trees
- shrubs
- herbs, grasses and ferns
The book includes native uses of plants, animal behaviour,
ecology and range, as well as colour maps showing ecoregions (tundra, taiga,
boreal forest, mixed forest, Carolinian forest), parks and nature areas.
