Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) and Inuit Nutrition Security in Canada
EcoHealth, 2018Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) has been fundamental to the diet and culture of Arctic Indigenous Peoples for thousands of years. Although caribou populations observe natural cycles of abundance and scarcity, several caribou herds across the Circumpolar North have experienced dramatic declines in recent decades due to a range of interrelated factors ...

Genetic variation in caribou and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus)
Animal Genetics, 2003SummaryGenetic variation at seven microsatellite DNA loci was quantified in 19 herds of wild caribou and domestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) from North America, Scandinavia and Russia. There is an average of 2.0–6.6 alleles per locus and observed individual heterozygosity of 0.33–0.50 in most herds.

An emaciated, 14-yr-old female boreal woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) was found dead with an ulcerated wound on the left side of the head. Radiographs documented osteolysis of portions of the mandible and cranium. Histopathology revealed an invasive adenocarcinoma infiltrating the soft tissues and bones of the head.

SEROLOGICAL EVIDENCE OF SOME BOVINE VIRUSES IN THE CARIBOU (Rangifer tarandus caribou) IN QUEBEC
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1981The prevalence of antibodies to some bovine viruses of the respiratory and digestive systems were investigated in two caribou herds in Northern Quebec, Canada, in autumn of 1978 in one herd, and 1979 in another herd. The serum neutralization and hemagglutination inhibition techniques were used.

First-stage protostrongylid larvae found in faeces of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in northwestern Ontario and Manitoba may be larvae of Elaphostrongylus sp., a well-known agent of neurologic disease in reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) of Eurasia.

The social and spatial behaviour of caribou Rangifer tarandus
2021All animals are social at some point in their life. The causes and consequences of animal social behaviour are widely studied, but the integration of space use and spatial features of the landscape within our understanding of social behaviour is not widely studied. My thesis broadly addresses the role of spatial features of the landscape and individual-

A Babesia species isolated from a captive caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) with clinical signs of babesiosis and a circulating parasitemia was cultured in vitro. Normal adult caribou erythrocytes supported the growth of the Babesia sp., as did erythrocytes from white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus).

Influences on Recruitment of Northern Mountain Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou)
2020Northern mountain caribou (NMC) (Rangifer tarandus caribou) face a unique combination of demographic influences among woodland caribou in Canada. To build knowledge of how NMC may respond to these influences, the potential effects of road and fire disturbance, climate (pacific decadal oscillation (PDO)), and harvest of moose (Alces alces), wolf (Canis ...

Energy metabolism of barren ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus)
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1970The heat production of two caribou, during fasting, 91 kcal and 102 kcal/W0.75 per 24 h, was 20 to 30% higher than the quoted interspecific mean of 70 kcal/W0.75 per 24 h. The mean heat production values of two female caribou at the maintenance level of feeding were 107.0 kcal and 124.5 kcal/W0.75 per 24 h.

Caribou kidney is a major source of cadmium (Cd) in the traditional diets of many aboriginal communities in the Arctic. In order to characterize the risk of Cd exposure, we studied the speciation of Cd in caribou kidneys and how, it can be affected by food preparation.
