- Abstract
- "When Canada created a Dominion Parks Branch in 1911, it became the first country in the world to establish an agency devoted to managing its national parks. Over the past century this agency, now Parks Canada, has been at the centre of important debates about the place of nature in Canadian nationhood, and relationships between Canadas diverse ecosystems and its communities. Today, Parks Canada manages over forty parks and reserves totalling over 200,000 square kilometres and featuring a dazzling variety of landscapes, and is recognized as a global leader in the environmental challenges of protected places."--Pubishers description.

- Abstract
- Explore the first fiction series about Canada's National Parks. Jasper Wild is the third story in the Dyed in the Green mystery series about the challenges facing our contry's special places, and the people working tirelessly to protect these national treasures. After helping scuttle plans to slaughter Wood Buffalo National Park's entire bison population, Ben Matthews and Kate Jones end up in Jasper. Distracted by rumours of a new mine on the park's boundary, Ben and Kate help uncover a plot to build a backcountry lodge in Jasper's wilderness, leaving no stone unturned to stop an international mining giant who conspires with government politicians and Parks management to carve off a piece of the park for himself. (From McNally Robinson website)
