Officials in the province know the importance of preserving their beautiful lands. In fact, Saskatchewan’s parks cover nearly 5 million acres of land. Of course, you don’t have to be on park land to see bison, eagles, osprey, white pelicans, beaver, elk, and moose. Bird-watchers should visit the Quill Lakes International Bird area that welcomes more than 300 species each year—30 of which are shore birds. See endangered species, nesting grounds, and migratory pit stops.
