That's awesome
How easy is it to see those animals in Canada?
I've just turned 18 but am in a poorfag household so I have never travelled to the nearby spots in NZ where the animals are
When I get a job in the future, I plan to save up enough money to travel around NZ to see native animals, and also travel around a foreign region to see exotic animals
I have thought about travelling in Canada and Alaska, as they are first world places with cool wildlife like bears moose etc
How could you find those animals?

if you go looking for them pretty easy other than grey whales that migrate a lot, specific animal seeing is expensive though
there's resident orcas in bc
lots of brown bears during salmon runs, black bears are more common
moose are common enough I don't know of any places that advertises them
bison are in specific parks mostly, easier to see them in montana than canada
could do a working holiday visa here, lot of you guys work on ski hills
Never gotten a chance to see one of these bad boys
going to take the train up to churchill and see one of these
