At the 14th North American Caribou Workshop, held in September 2012, Mathieu Leblond presented on research related to caribou and road avoidance behaviour. 53 collared caribou were monitored over a 7-year period. Results indicate that road avoidance is positively related to disturbance intensity. Mathieu Leblond is from the University of Quebec in Rimouski.
