Saskatchewan Wild - A Wildlife Photographic Journey

Go wild with a new book by writers and photographers Robin and Arlene Karpan. Saskatchewan Wild – A Wildlife Photographic Journey takes you on an exciting visual discovery of our amazing birds, fascinating critters, dazzling wildflowers, and the splendour of fall. With over 180 stunning photographs, this hardcover coffee-table book gets you up close and personal with Saskatchewan’s wild creatures, many with magnificent colours, or strange and elaborate mating rituals.

Saskatchewan abounds with wonderful opportunities to see and enjoy wildlife. Famous as "North America's Duck Factory", the province raises a quarter of the continent's ducklings. Waterfowl stage here in the hundreds of thousands, giving us easy access to some of nature's greatest spectacles each fall with birds almost blackening the sky as they lift off in unison. Saskatchewan is home to half of Canada's pelicans, half of Canada's designated sites in the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network, the world's largest inland concentration of Bald Eagles, white-tailed deer with the largest antlers in North America, some of the last remaining sage-grouse in Canada, the only black-tailed prairie dogs in Canada, and a quarter of the world's endangered Piping Plovers.

Saskatchewan Wild is a taste of the many wildlife adventures possible in Saskatchewan. It is both a celebration of our wildlife and a reminder of what we might lose if we aren't careful.

Saskatchewan Wild is available at better bookstores and gift shops, or directly from Parkland Publishing. 306-242-7731. www.parklandpublishing.com
