Monts-Valin National Park

So far, botanists have identified 442 species of plants in Monts-Valin.^[3]

Likewise, thirty-seven species of mammals have been observed inside the park. The most frequently sighted mammals are the moose, the North American beaver, the fisher, the white-tailed deer, and the woodland caribou. Hairs of the eastern cougar were also collected in 2002,^[4] possibly confirming the previous presence of this predator around the park territory.

The only classes of reptiles that have been identified in the park's territory are the common garter snake and the northern redbelly snake. The latter is rare in this region, as it has only been identified within park territory as of 2006.^[3]

Amphibians, on the other hand, are numerous in the territory, with eleven distinct species divided into six families. The various wetlands distributed over the park are home to, among others, the American toad, the spring peeper, the wood frog, the green frog, the eastern newt, the spotted salamander, and the red-backed salamander.^[3]
