Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut together comprise 40% of Canada's land mass and less than 0.5% of its population. The north is Canada's wildest, most dramatic, and least understood region.
You encounter the endangered Djibouti francolin and the Somali wild ass in Djibouti's arid landscapes. You most commonly see domestic cats, goats, and camels kept by residents in this Horn of Africa nation. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You celebrate the local rum production of Saint Martin, where distilleries like Rhum Clement (though Martinique-based, widely available here) define Caribbean spirits culture.
