Alaska Wildlife Notebook Series: This site is from the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. It provides comprehensive fact sheets on big and small game, birds, fish, shellfish, reptiles and amphibians found all over North America, not just in the North. It has a lot of info, plus pictures, for each species (and there's an awful lot of them). For Canadians who know the series, it is somewhat like the Hinterland Who's Who series available from one of the Canadian Government Departments.
