What do Caribou Eat? A Review of the Literature on Caribou Diet
Resource
Historically the study of diet caribou and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus (Gmelin, 1788)) has been specific to herds and few comprehensive circumpolar analyses of Rangifer diet exist. As a result, the...
What Happened to the Beverly Caribou Herd after 1994?
Resource
The Beverly herd was one of the first large migratory herds of barren-ground caribou ( Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) defined in northern Canada on the basis of annual return of breeding females to...
When the Protection of a Threatened Species Depends on the Economy of a Foreign Nation

Whole Genome Sequences from Non-invasively Collected Caribou Faecal Samples
Resource
This study presents a method to extract DNA from the mucosal layer of caribou faecal samples to re-sequence high coverage whole genomes. Quality metrics were similar between caribou faecal and tissue
Whose Line Is It Anyway? Moose (Alces alces) Response to Linear Features
Resource
Linear features are pervasive across the boreal forest of Canada, negatively impacting several wildlife species. Understanding how wildlife responds to different types and characteristics of linear...
