Loss of Connectivity Among Island-dwelling Peary Caribou Following Sea Ice Decline
Resource
Global warming threatens to reduce population connectivity for terrestrial wildlife through significant and rapid changes to sea ice. Using genetic fingerprinting, we contrasted extant connectivity in...
Modeling Cumulative Effects of Climate and Development on Moose, Wolf, and Caribou Populations
Resource
This article explores the results of an integrated landscape and population simulation model which accounts for key ecological components and relationships among moose, grey wolves, and woodland...
Novel Multilayer Network Analysis to Assess Variation in the Spatial Co-occurrences of Close Kin in Wild Caribou Populations
Resource
Abstract Understanding how individuals within populations are connected genetically and through shared space-use is critical to understanding the demographic patterns of at-risk populations. In recent...
Ontario Partnering with First Nation Community to Protect Caribou in the North
News
Organization
The Ontario government has finalized an agreement with Biigtigong Nishnaabeg First Nation to help revive caribou in the North. This investment of nearly $1 million will support a multi-year initiative...
Ontario protecting Boreal Caribou with historic investment

Parallel Evolution of Site‐specific Changes in Divergent Caribou Lineages
Resource
The parallel evolution of phenotypes or traits within or between species provides important insight into the basic mechanisms of evolution. Genetic and genomic advances have allowed investigations...
Plow-in Pipeline Construction Improves Recovery of Rough Fescue Grassland
Resource
Plow-in pipeline approach resulted in a fescue-bluegrass vegetation community that had the best rough fescue recovery and greatest similarity to undisturbed natural grassland
Population Dynamics of Caribou Shaped by Glacial Cycles Before the Last Glacial Maximum
Resource
Pleistocene glacial cycles influenced the diversification of high- latitude wildlife species through recurrent periods of range contraction, isolation, divergence, and expansion from refugia and...
Population Structure of Caribou in an Ice-bound Archipelago
Resource
This 2018 academic paper suggests that, based on genetics, the Baffin Island population of caribou should be treated as a separate “designatable unit” under the classification system for the Committee...
Population Trend Analysis for Boreal Caribou in SK2 Central using Non-invasive Capture-Recapture Analysis (2007 – 2019)
Resource
"A 3-year population monitoring program was put in place for a study area within SK2 Central covering 16,092 km2 using fecal DNA based capture–recapture methods to estimate population sizes and...
Prioritization can Improve Cost Effectiveness of Seismic Line Restoration
Resource
Upland mesic sites showed a relatively strong ability to regenerate on their own (passive restoration), while lowland (bogs and fens) and upland dry sites were slow to recover.
Proposal for a Conservation Agreement under s.11 of the Species at Risk Act: Woodland Caribou (Boreal population)
News
Organization
A proposal for a bilateral conservation agreement between Ontario and Canada to support boreal caribou protection and recovery under section 11 of the federal Species at Risk Act is now available for...
Protecting Forest Floor in Place Rather than Stripping it Off is a Better Strategy to Regenerated Temporary Drilling Pads
Resource
Where forest floor was protected from disturbance, there were approximately 10 times as many aspen sprouts that were at least 3 times as tall as sprouts in the area where floor was stripped & replaced
