    Caribou, Lynx, Arctic Fox, Moose, Loons, and Wolverines are all native to Onatario. I vote for Caribou.

    The obvious choice is the "Rappers", it would take only slight modifications to the unis.

    Every year, we read that Raptor owners want to change the name. Then they are held back by NBA-wide fan love of the name.
