In Jasper National Park, you can not only enjoy the best views, clear lakes and phenomenal mountains. Nature also makes an awful lot of animals feel at home. Large grazers such as elk, mountain goats and bighorn sheep are occasionally hunted by wolves and brown bears. You can also encounter many species of birds and rodents such as marmots and beavers.
The best way to spot wildlife is to book one of the many excursions. The guides know where and when you are most likely to encounter animals. In addition, they know their way around and know how to deal with the animals if you unexpectedly come face to face with them. The best times to spot wildlife are in the morning and evening. Seeking wildlife is of course also great to combine with a hike, Wildlife & Hike brings the best of both together.
