The following chapters profile selected species in the major habitats across Carolinian Canada. We hope this will inspire you to find out what you have in your backyard, on your property, down your street, or in your community. This publication is by no means a complete account and species status changes constantly. Use the links provided to get the latest information or more detail about something that might look familiar to you. The plants and animals you save today, will be the natural wonders of tomorrow.
