The Top Ten
1 Polar Bear The polar bear is a carnivorous bear whose native range lies largely within the Arctic Circle, encompassing the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and surrounding land masses.

Polar bears are the best animals in he world and should be the simple of Canada.

I like the white fur

2 Beluga Whale The beluga whale or white whale is an Arctic and sub-Arctic cetacean. It is one of two members of the family Monodontidae, along with the narwhal, and the only member of the genus Delphinapterus.

This should be number one their so friendly!

3 Caribou The reindeer, also known as the caribou in North America, is a species of deer with circumpolar distribution, native to Arctic, sub-Arctic, tundra, boreal and mountainous regions of northern Europe, Siberia and North America.

8 Raccoon The raccoon, sometimes spelled racoon, also known as the common raccoon, North American raccoon, northern raccoon and colloquially as coon, is a medium-sized mammal native to North America.

They are everywhere - in the park, in your backyard, under your balcony begging for food... Even in the biggest Canadian cities - Toronto and Montreal.
Raccoons in Canada are like the foxes in London - part of the urban life.

9 Red Fox The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is the largest of the true foxes. It has the greatest geographic range of all members of the Carnivora family, being present across the entire Northern Hemisphere from the Arctic Circle to North Africa, North America and Eurasia.

@Martin_Canine - yes, we have too many raccoons and tomorrow 1,000 raccoons will take the first flight to Vienna. Sounds good?

@Metal_Treasure: I am sure 1000 households will soon have a new pet.

Foxes and raccoons ==> cuteness overdose.
If you guys ever have too many of them bring them over here. We don't have any in Austria.

Red fox is a native of Canada.

10 Great White Shark The great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias), also known as the white shark, white pointer, or simply great white, is a species of large mackerel shark which can be found in the coastal surface waters of all the major oceans.

12 Canada Lynx A lynx is any of the four species (the Canada lynx, Iberian lynx, Eurasian lynx, or bobcat) within the medium-sized wild cat genus Lynx.

they are one of my favorite animas

13 Arctic Hare

Arctic Hare aka polar rabbit, lives in the Arctic tundra. They have shortened ears and limbs, a smaller nose, fat that makes up 20% of its body, and a thicker coat of fur. These things help them survive.

It is a North American wild cat that is smaller on average than the Canada lynx (both are from the Lynx genus of medium-sized wild cats).
