Answer:

The Prairies offer unique habitat for the Black-tailed Prairie Dog, while its southern region is home to the Short-horned Lizard and Western Rattlesnake. Manitoba provides habitat for Black Bear, Moose, Sharp-tailed Grouse, Beaver, and Red Fox. Also present are various species of frog and toad.Local fish include Walleye, Lake Whitefish, and Northern Pike.

Considering its area and population, the Prairies Ecozone has a disproportionate number of threatened and endangered wildlife species. At least four vertebrate species -- the Plains Grizzly, Swift Fox, Black-footed Ferret, and Greater Prairie Chicken -- have disappeared from the area. The Peregrine Falcon, Mountain Plover, Eskimo Curlew, Piping Plover, Burrowing Owl, and Whooping Crane are all endangered.
