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

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 ...

Experimental moose reduction lowers wolf density and stops decline of endangered caribou [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 The expansion of moose into southern British Columbia caused the decline and extirpation of woodland caribou due to their shared predators, a process commonly referred to as apparent competition.

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.

Woodland caribou management in Alberta: historical perspectives and future opportunities
Rangifer, 2007 Woodland caribou conservation has been the topic of much debate for the past few decades. By the late 1970s there was growing concern about declining woodland caribou populations and the interaction between industrial activities and woodland caribou ...
