Micro‐habitat selection by boreal woodland caribou improves access to food
Bio‐logging sensors attached to radiotelemetry receivers have great potential to transform our understanding of the ecological, physiological, and energetic constraints that shape patterns of wildlife movement under field conditions. We used video camera collars to assess microhabitat selectivity by woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus in boreal forests ...
