Untamed Atlantic Canada

Spanning 1,200 kilometres from New Brunswick’s Passamaquoddy Bay to Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula, Atlantic Canada stands as a nexus between North America and the North Atlantic Ocean. Its diverse geography, variable climate, and surrounding ocean currents coalesce to create a rich medley of habitats both on the land and in the sea. There are currently eight thousand known species in this little corner of the world, and award­winning nature photographer Scott Leslie has captured a beautiful selection of them on these pages.

In Untamed Atlantic Canada, discover the stunning array of animals living in the region–from elusive black foxes, to clouds of semi­palmated sandpipers, and endangered right whales–through 140 colour images with detailed, narrative captions. This photographic collection is perfect for seasoned naturalists and novice nature lovers alike.
