Identifying drivers of calving in Svalbard Reindeer

In seasonal environments, the importance of a well-timed calving that matches spring start and onset of plant growth has resulted in a highly synchronous calving season in large herbivores. Timing is important because it determines both neonatal and parental resource allocation and future reproductive potential.

Calving site characteristics and habitat use in Svalbard reindeer

, 2018
Migrating reindeer and caribou tend to return to traditional calving locations every spring with specific environmental conditions and protection of calving grounds is a central part of Rangifer conservation. In contrast, the non-migratory Svalbard reindeer inhabit an environment free of predators during calving season making them ideal as a reference ...
