Caribou Ecology and Recovery Webinar Series - "Disentangling the Influence of Anthropogenic Habitat Alteration from Climate on Expanding White-tailed Deer Populations in Western Canada"
Resource
Abstract: White-tailed deer have become increasingly common within caribou range in northern Alberta, and have been linked with an increase in wolf densities. Previous studies have speculated that...
Caribou Ecology and Recovery Webinar Series - "Let it Grow? Moose Response to Habitat Disturbance in Caribou Ranges"
Resource
Join us to explore the latest research supporting caribou recovery in Canada—from general ecology, to the mechanisms of caribou declines, to potential recovery options. The series begins with a...
Caribou Ecology and Recovery Webinar Series - "Predicting Patterns of Terrestrial Lichen Biomass Recovery Following Boreal Wildfires"
Resource
Abstract: Increased fire activity due to climate change may impact the successional dynamics of boreal forests, with important consequences for caribou habitat. Early successional forests have been...

Effects of Mine Development on Woodland Caribou Rangifer tarandus Distribution
Resource
Knowledge of the effect of mining developments on caribou Rangifer tarandus is fragmentary. We examined the impact of the Hope Brook gold mine, southwestern Newfoundland, on the La Poile woodland...
Governance as a Driver of Change in the Canadian Boreal Zone
Resource
The Canadian boreal forest is primarily public land, owned and managed by provincial governments on behalf of the public interest. Boreal forest governance consists of a complex patchwork of federal...
Habitat Loss Accelerates for the Endangered Woodland Caribou in Western Canada
Resource
Habitat loss is often the ultimate cause of species endangerment and is also a leading factor inhibiting species recovery. For this reason, species-at-risk legislation, policies and plans typically...
How Woodland Caribou use Post-fire Landscapes in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
To examine the effects of forest fires on woodland caribou, we collected GPS location data on five caribou ranges in northeastern Alberta.
Meta-analysis Reveals that Enhanced Practices Accelerate Vegetation Recovery During Peatland Restoration
