Animal Towns in Canada


Below is a list of some towns in CANADA that feature animals in their names. After seeing the many names on this list, it is apparent that many Canadian towns take pride in the mammals, fish, and birds that live there. There are probably even more than this list provides.
Alberta: Bear Lake and Red Deer
British Columbia: Bear Lake (just like in Alberta), and Salmon Arm
Manitoba: Bird, Crane River, Cormorant, Deer, Duck Bay, Elkhorn, Falcon Lake, Moosehorn, Moose Lake, Pelican Rapids, Swan River, and West Hawk Lake
Newfoundland and Labrador: Badger's Quay, Deer Lake, Fox Harbour, Foxtrap, Gander, and Salmon Cove
Nova Scotia: Bass River, Beaver Bank (or Beaverbank), Caribou, and Salmon River
Saskatchewan: Big Beaver, Bird Point, Duck Lake, Fox Valley, Gull Lake, Loon Lake, Moose Jaw, Pelican Narrows, Porcupine Plain, Rabbit Lake, Sturgeon Landing, and Swan Plain
Ontario: Deer Lake, Eagle Lake, Elk Lake, Heron Bay, Moose Factor, Moose River, Otter Rapids, Rat Rapids, and Sturgeon Falls
