About Wood Buffalo
Wood Buffalo National Park is Canada's largest national park and one of the largest in the world, spanning 44,807 square kilometers across northeastern Alberta and the southern Northwest Territories. Established in 1922 to protect the last remaining herds of wood bison, it is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognized for the Peace-Athabasca Delta, one of the world's largest freshwater deltas, and as the only remaining natural nesting ground for endangered whooping cranes.
