Thaidene Nëné National Park Reserve

Thaidene Nene National Park Reserve (from the Dene, this Chipewyan name means land of our ancestors) is a national park in the vicinity of the east arm of Great Slave Lake, located on the northern edge of the boreal forest of Canada in the North Slave Region of the Northwest Territories. It is administered by Parks Canada and is part of the Thaidene Nëné Indigenous Protected Area, which also includes Territorial Protected Area and a Wildlife Conservation Area administered by the Government of the Northwest Territories. The National Park Reserve covers 14,070 km2 of nationally significant boreal forest, tundra, and freshwater ecosystems.

The creation of Thaidene Nene National Park Reserve works to protect caribou and pelt animals such as "lynx, wolf, red fox, wolverine, marten, moose and black bear". Other mammals inhabiting this park reserve include Arctic fox, beaver, muskox, grizzly bear and barren-ground caribou. The area features red granite cliffs, as well as "a spectacular array of peninsulas, canyons and waterfalls as the forests give way to northern tundra". Various migratory bird species also stage and nest in the area, including ducks and songbirds.
