On the way to…

  1. Argentia → Salmonier Nature Park →

    Run by the province's wildlife division on the Salmonier Line. By its own account it opened in 1978 as an environmental education centre and grew into a tourist destination. The animals live in large natural enclosures along a boardwalk trail, among them the Newfoundland marten, for which staff built a captive-breeding enclosure while it was designated endangered. The province coordinates its wildlife rehabilitation from here, and most of the animals arrived injured and unreleasable.

    Stopping here adds about 0.1 km to that drive (90 km start to finish).
