The Peace River Parkland Wildlife

Rare Trumpeter SwanWildlife of the Peace River Parkland Subregion is similar to that of the adjacent boreal forest mixedwood subregions. Few animals of Central Parkland grassland habitats are present. Lakes and ponds of the Peace River Parkland constitute a major nesting area for the rare trumpeter swan. Three species of fish barely range into Alberta along the upper Peace River: redside shiner, northern squawfish and longscale sucker.
