How big is the Canadian Badlands?
It's a big place. According to the Canadian Badlands website, www.canadianbadlands.com the Canadian Badlands covers "a broad swath of southern and eastern Alberta". A map there shows that it extends roughly south from Red Deer, Alberta to the border with the state of Montana - about 450km or 280 miles, and east from Calgary to the border with the province of Saskatchewan - about 350km or 220 miles. That would make it approximately 157,500 to 159,543 square kilometres, or 60,811 to 61,600 square miles in area.
Are the badlands of Alberta and the U.S. considered desert areas?
The Canadian Badlands have cacti, scorpions and rattlesnakes. They're smaller in size than what you would find in the American Southwest but they're there nonetheless. I always looked at the Canadian Badlands to be a temperate desert much like the Pacific Northwest is a temperate rain forest. Alex Medicine Hat I'm afraid Alex is incorrect. Badlands are simply an eroded landform, making them part of whatever biome/ecosystem they are located in, so they are not deserts in their own right, although some (such as those in the Southwestern USA) are indeed located in deserts. The badlands of Alberta (as well as Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota) are located solidly within prairie areas, so they have the same climate as the rest of the prairie surrounding them, meaning they receive just as much rain and snowfall as surrounding areas. A desert is, roughly defined, an area that usually gets less than 250mm of precipitation annually, and the driest places in Alberta still get over 300mm annually. You could say that the Alberta badlands are located in a semi-desert, as the western half of the prairies are semi-arid (and deserts are arid), but the prairie badlands are not deserts themselves, nor are they located in desert areas. As well, one can just as easily find cacti, scorpions and rattlesnakes in prairie grassland areas so long as the areas are not too disturbed by humans or livestock. Brett Brooks Brett.
