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

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 ...

Predation rate by wolves on the Porcupine caribou herd
Rangifer, 2000 Large migratory catibou {Rangifer tarandus) herds in the Arctic tend to be cyclic, and population trends are mainly driven by changes in forage or weather events, not by predation.

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2023 Forest harvesting causes habitat loss and alteration and can change predator–prey dynamics. In Canada, forest harvesting has shifted the distribution and abundance of ungulates (deer, elk and moose) that prefer early seral forest, resulting in ...

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 ...

The direct and habitat-mediated influence of climate on the biogeography of boreal caribou in Canada
Climate Change Ecology, 2022 Effective species conservation efforts require insight into whether a species’ extent of occurrence may shift due to changing climate, habitat loss, or both.
