This park has many endagerd species mainly reptiles including the western Corn snake, The black rat snake, the blue racer and the eastern mole. These animals and reptiles are being brutally murderd by people buying cottages or property and killing the harmless animals in fear. Although it is said that the snakes will strike there has never been a seriouse injury or death from a bite.

The bears are said to be better tasting and fatter at point pelee.Although the bears are becoming endangered from hunters they dont realize it and continue to hunt and kill the defenceless animals.
A new rule is being put in for no hunting the wild animals of point pelee.

Although the bears are not yet endangered they are walking on the line for every winter 400 bears are killed in hunting. Once a year point pelee hosts a muskrat hunt where hunters in the old days used to do for trades. This hunt is held in the great marshes of point pelee where over 400 muskrats are killed in the two weeks it is held. People use the pelts for trades and cloths.
