The Northern Pygmy Owl makes it's home in the large foothills just west of Sundre, Alberta
As do the wild horse herds that Jason Nixon loves to shoot so much..
What are the foothills?
the foothills are that area of land between the Rocky Mountains and the plain and mostly flat rest of Canada to the east. It is made of hilly, and sometimes mountainous areas of both mountainous flora and fauna as well as prairie fauna. It is unique for several reasons.
OUR FOOTHILLS ARE BEING RAPED 
Most of the foothills are covered in oil wells and coal slurry's so don't be surprised when some oil payed loser shoots you.
