Wildlife in British Columbia's South Coast

Mark Merlino - Home page

A Black Bear, these large but playful creatures are very common in the south coast.

Tree Frogs are noisy residents of the forests. But their songs give character to the forests, especially at night.

The Deer is a typical animal you can see in the forests of the south coast.

Cougars are the top predator of the forest. They mainly eat deer, but also other smaller animals.

Garter Snakes also are common. They are toothless and harmless and like to bask in the sun.

Wasps are common insects, especially on sunny days in the summer.
