When you're looking out over the snowy tundra and suddenly these two pop up out of the willows. Polar bears, especially males, will sometimes kill time while waiting for the ice to freeze with a little friendly sparring. #mammals #BearSeason2025 🌿

This summer, Canada’s tourism sector did more business than ever before — by welcoming the world and being our own best customer.
More good news: we just renewed the Canada Strong Pass for the holidays and summer 2026 — so it’s more affordable to explore our incredible country.

It’s rut season for our black-tailed deer! 🦌 Males are showing off their stunning antlers and competing for attention. These impressive antlers shed and regrow each year, and are a sign of health and strength during the fall mating season.

I ❤️ Willow!
Up close with 2-year-old Willow, the muskox munching on some tasty lichen! Beneath that fuzzy, shaggy coat, muskoxen have a super-soft underlayer called qiviut, one of the warmest natural fibers in the world.

Simply gorgeous primates! #Primates #PrimatesAreNotPets
Verreaux's sifakas (Propithecus verreauxi), found in southern Madagascar, leap vertically, rapidly bounding even between dangerous spiny thorn shrubs. When no trees are present, they leap across the ground in a side-long dance. Threats include rampant deforestation and hunting. Critically Endangered
