Inferring the rules of social interaction in migrating caribou [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2018 Social interactions are a significant factor that influence the decision-making of species ranging from humans to bacteria. In the context of animal migration, social interactions may lead to improved decision-making, greater ability to respond to ...

Predator–prey co‐occurrence in harvest blocks: Implications for caribou and forestry
Conservation Science and Practice, 2022 Forest harvesting alters habitat, impacts wildlife, and disrupts ecosystem function. Across the boreal forest of Canada, forest harvesting affects ungulate prey species and their predators, with cascading impacts on other species, including threatened ...

Habitat loss accelerates for the endangered woodland caribou in western Canada
Conservation Science and Practice, 2021 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 focus on habitat conservation and restoration as ...

Barrier impermeability is associated with migratory ungulate survival rates [PDF]
Scientific ReportsBarriers can affect the movement, migratory patterns, and demographic rates of ungulates. Even in highly remote areas with relatively little development, like northwest Alaska, isolated roads can alter the movements of ungulates such as caribou (Rangifer

Quantifying forest disturbance regimes within caribou (Rangifer tarandus) range in British Columbia
Scientific ReportsHabitat disturbance is a major driver of the decline of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Canada. Different disturbance agents and regimes negatively impact caribou populations to different degrees.

Arctic greening from warming promotes declines in caribou populations
Science Advances, 2017 A greener Arctic does not benefit caribou; the shift in tundra vegetation due to warming is associated with declining caribou herds. The migratory tundra caribou herds in North America follow decadal population cycles, and browsing from abundant caribou ...

Undermining subsistence: Barren-ground caribou in a “tragedy of open access”
Science Advances, 2018 Mineral resource development in the Canadian north has tragic consequences for both caribou and Indigenous people. Sustaining arctic/subarctic ecosystems and the livelihoods of northern Indigenous peoples is an immense challenge amid increasing resource ...
