Caribou and Reindeer Migrations in the Changing Arctic
Resource
Caribou and reindeer, Rangifer tarandus, are the most numerous and socio-ecologically important terrestrial species in the Arctic. Their migrations are directly and indirectly affected by the seasonal...
Comparison of Woodland Caribou Calving Areas Determined by Movement Patterns Across Northern Ontario
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Continental Synchrony and Local Responses: Climatic Effects on Spatiotemporal Patterns of Calving in a Social Ungulate
Resource
Warming temperatures and advancing spring are affecting annual snow and ice cycles, as well as plant phenology, across the Arctic and boreal regions. These changes may be linked to observed population...
Critical Summer Foraging Tradeoffs in a Subarctic Ungulate
Resource
Summer diets are crucial for large herbivores in the subarctic and are affected by weather, harassment from insects and a variety of environmental changes linked to climate. Yet, understanding...
Cultural and Ecological Value of Boreal Woodland Caribou Habitat
Resource
This report provides a preliminary discussion of cultural and ecological values related to Canada's boreal woodland caribou, and provides references to existing methodologies for assessing these...
Current State of Knowledge and Research on Woodland Caribou in Canada
Resource
Abstract Caribou ( Rangifer tarandus) is a species of deer that lives in the tundra, taiga, and forest habitats at high latitudes in the northern hemisphere, including areas of Russia and Scandinavia...
Evaluating Indices of Nutritional Condition for Caribou (Rangifer tarandus): Which are the Most Valuable and Why?
Resource
Body composition studies are critical for evaluating the accuracy of nutritional condition indices for predicting body components. We evaluated >40 indices of nutritional condition for caribou (...
Increasing Fire Frequency and Severity Will Increase Habitat Loss for a Boreal Forest Indicator Species
Resource
Climate change will lead to more frequent and more severe fires in some areas of boreal forests, affecting the distribution and availability of late-successional forest communities. These forest...

Research Related to Boreal Caribou Habitat Restoration Economics in British Columbia
Resource
An independent full-cost-benefit accounting and economic analysis of woodland caribou habitat restoration in northeastern British Columbia.
Room for Both: Realizing a Future with Sustainable Economies and Healthy Caribou Populations
Resource
In this report, the David Suzuki Foundation highlights opportunities for caribou conservation that have not been realized due to the political climate and the propagation of the much-exaggerated jobs...
Seasonal Patterns in Nutritional Condition of Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) in the Southern Northwest Territories and Northeastern British Columbia, Canada
Resource
Study sampled three measures of nutritional condition of adult female caribou, evaluated the effect of calf-rearing on condition and developed an annual profile of nutritional condition.
Seasonal Patterns of Spatial Fidelity and Temporal Consistency in the Distribution and Movements of a Migratory Ungulate
Resource
How animals use their range can have physiological, ecological, and demographic repercussions, as well as impact management decisions, species conservation, and human society. Fidelity, the...
State-dependent Foraging by Caribou With Different Nutritional Requirements
Resource
A 14-page academic paper that examines the connection between the physiological state of caribou and how they feed. The paper says, "Foraging time by caribou was partially state-dependent...
