Wood Buffalo's name reveals its greatest asset: Canada's largest free-ranging bison herd. The park also protects the last natural nesting ground for the endangered whooping crane. The park has abundant natural features that led to its UNESCO status. Most of the 1700 square mile, internationally significant Peace-Athabasca Delta lies within park boundaries. The park also has some of the most extensive karst topography in North America.
