What is an ecoprovince? It's an area with similar weather, landscapes, animals and plants. In BC we have nine different ecoprovinces, each with special features that make it different from anywhere else in the province. The ecoprovince YOU live in is important because it is connected to every other ecoprovince as the air, water and animals move from place to place. This ecoprovinces map was created to help you find out about the living things around you and see the other animals, plants and people that live in the rest of the province. If you find words that are new or that you don't understand, then click on the Glossary to find a list of words. The glossary will open up in a new window, so you can keep it while you're looking at the Ecoprovinces. |
