This infographic was created by Jennifer Hird as part of the paper " Motorized Activity on Legacy Seismic Lines: A Predictive Modeling Approach to Prioritize Restoration Efforts."
The paper by the Caribou Program (and GIS and Grizzly Bear Programs) breaks down how seismic lines are influencing predator movement by season and species. This infographic was illustrated by Jennifer...
The paper by the fRI Research Caribou Program investigates seismic lines for their abundance of forage plants, which could attract predators of caribou such as bears as well as alternate prey for...
This infographic by Heather Hinam describes the Caribou Conservation through Better Cutblock Design project by the Caribou Program run by fRI Research. The background, methods, and potential uses for...
This 2-page briefing note provides a quick Year 1 update on a Caribou Program project undertaken by fRI Research, which aims to provide information on forest management that could limit habitat for...
Forest harvesting alters habitat, impacts wildlife, and disrupts ecosystem function. Across the boreal forest of Canada, forest harvesting affects ungulate prey species and their predators, with...
We investigated the attributes of harvest blocks associated with the highest occupancy and/or co-occurrence of ungulates and predators, with the goal of providing practical information for best forest...
This infographic by Sunny Tseng describes the key results from a paper by Tracy McKay and Dr. Laura Finnegan. Deer, elk, and moose are apparent competitors for caribou because they draw predators...
Moose occur across the northern Boreal and Foothills of Alberta (Alces alces). Their core range is in mid- and west-central Alberta and supports the highest densities of moose in the province. The...
Forest harvesting causes habitat loss and alteration and can change predator– prey dynamics. In Canada, forest harvesting has shifted the distribution and abundance of ungulates (deer, elk and moose)...
