    NORTH DAKOTA For more information about NORTH DAKOTA, click here: https://nd.gov/ MAJOR CITIES: Northwest North Dakota Minot Southwest North Dakota Bismarck Southwest North Dakota Dickinson Northeast North Dakota Grand Forks Southeast North Dakota Fargo NORTH DAKOTA – CLIMATE Sub-humid continental climate. Annual mean precipitation ranges from 13 inches in the northwest to more than 20 inches in the southeast. Average yearly temperature ranges from 37 degrees F in the northeast to 43 degrees in the south. January, the coldest month, average temperatures range from 2 degrees in the northeast to 17 degrees in the southwest. July, the warmest month, average temperatures range from 67 degrees in the northeast 73 degrees in the south. The all-time high was 121 degrees at Steele on July 6, 1936. The all-time low was -60 degrees at Parshall on February 15, 1936. Being 1,000 miles (1,609 km) from any large body of water (with the exception of Lake Superior), temperatures and precipitation in North Dakota can vary widely. North Dakota is far enough north to experience −60 °F (−51 °C) temperatures and blizzards during the winter months, but far enough south to experience 121 °F (49 °C) temperatures and tornado outbreaks in the summer. The 181°F degree (100 °C) variation between North Dakota's highest and lowest temperature is the 3rd largest variation of any U.S. State, and the largest of any non-mountainous state. 1 | P a g e Click on the sites for more information on North Dakota’s Climate http://www.nd.gov/content.htm?parentCatID=147&id=Climate

  • Wild Neighbours the Safety and Security of Ontario's Wildlife in Captivity Facilities
    WILD NEIGHBOURS The Safety and Security of Ontario's Wildlife in Captivity Facilities <H1> Photo caption here Tigers are dangerous animals that retain their wild instincts, and they must be treated with extreme caution. The large (and possibly growing) number of people who keep tigers is a cause for concern. There is a significant danger posed by captive tigers, even when they are cared for by professionals and held in facili- ties that take all the required safety precautions. The risk of tigers causing human injury and death is highest when this risk is underestimated, such as when tigers are kept as pets, used as a prop for photographs, or people come in direct contact with them to feed, clean cages, or pet them—with or without a cage separating people and tigers.
