Meet five wildlife treasures that have a strong Canadian connection! From a big bear to a button-sized butterfly, this special set introduces you to five of our endemic animals—animals that are only found in Canada and nowhere else. These all-Canadian wildlife treasures are tucked inside a colourful folder that opens up like a magazine spread. In addition to the five coins, you'll find information on each animal's size and other fascinating facts, plus a map that shows you where these Canadian creatures are found.
