In
2007 Jasper National Park will celebrate its Centennial.
To honour the Park and its natural biodiversity a collection of
artwork has been assembled, theme Caribou.
The Woodland Caribou herds in Jasper have declined in the last
100 years and the hope is that this traveling exhibition will not only
celebrate the centenary of the Park but also educate Canadians about
National Parks and the need to keep these places wild. As such the exhibition has been called Tuktu Prayers – Tuktu is Inuit for Caribou and the prayer is that Caribou will continue to be part of wild Canada for the centuries to come.
Jasper is in a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Woodland Caribou in Jasper National Park are presently listed as a 'species at risk'. (UPDATE Feb 06, the status has been raised to that of THREATENED) ___________________
