A Diversity of Species
A meeting place for species from both the south and the north. TLB is also bird and reptile country with more richness of these than anywhere in the province!
SPECIES FROM THE SOUTH
The Land Between is at the northern limit for many species in Ontario (eg: White Oak, Woodchuck, Cottontail, Green Heron, Chorus Frog, Cardinal...)
SPECIES FROM THE NORTH
The Land Between is also at the southern limit for Shield species (eg. Grey Wolf, Moose, American Raven, Jack Pine, River Otter...)
ASSOCIATED SPECIES
Many species rely on The Land Between for their survival, especially reptiles. 100% of the five lined skink sub-species reside here! Many of these associated species are also Species at Risk.
