Canada is NOT a state, so has no state animals. The Canadian NATIONAL animals are the beaver which has been a symbol since 1975, and the Canadian horse,which has been a symbol since 2002.
The beaver is an iconic symbol of Canada because of its importance in the early fur trade. The Canadian Horse is considered more of an icon rather than a national symbol; it is the first horse to be bred in Canada - and perhaps the first to be bred in North America.
The official emblem of Canada is the red maple leaf. The beaver is another symbol of Canada that represents the country.
