I am Canadian but have only had the good fortune in seeing two of our national animal in my whole life...one actually slapped his tail at us as we got a little close purely by accident.

Being Canadian easy peasy Btw, the beaver has caused more havoc than both American & Russian symbol animals... being transplanted to Europe in the 1800's then released to the wild & left unchecked ... google it, I dare ya 😜
