Banks Island is one of the Canadian Arctic Islands. It lies in the District of Franklin in the Northwest Territories to the west of Victoria Island. The Amundsen Gulf[?] separates it on the south from the mainland. On the west is the Beaufort Sea[?]. The McClure Strait[?] on the north is between it and Prince Patrick Island[?] and Melville Island[?] of the Parry Islands[?]. The settlement of Sachs Harbour[?] lies on the southwest coast. Two federal migratory bird sanctuaries were founded on the island in 1961. Banks is one of the largest islands of the world.
