Where is the Carolinian life zone found?
The Carolinian Life Zone extends northward from the Carolinas, up between the Mississippi River and the Appalachian Mountains, to its northernmost point in southwestern Ontario. In Ontario, the Carolinian Life Zone stretches south of an imaginary line drawn between the southern end of Lake Huron and the north shore of Lake Ontario, in the Toronto area. This area is very small and encompasses less than 0.25% of our country’s total land area.
