Caribou nursery site habitat characteristics in two northern Ontario parks

Rangifer, 2007
To prevent further range recession, habitat features essential to the life-history requisites of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) such as calving and nursery sites need to be protected for the persistence of the species.

Lessons from integrating behaviour and resource selection: activity-specific responses of African wild dogs to roads [PDF]

, 2015
Understanding how anthropogenic features affect species' abilities to move within landscapes is essential to conservation planning and requires accurate assessment of resource selection for movement by focal species.

Integration of woodland caribou habitat management and forest management in northern Ontario - current status and issues

Rangifer, 1998
Woodland caribou {Rangifer tarandus caribou) range across northern Ontario, occurring in both the Hudson Bay Lowlands and the Boreal Forest. Woodland caribou extend south well into the merchantable forest, occurring in licensed and/or actively managed ...

Towards a Caribou Habitat Management Strategy for Northwestern Ontario: Running the Gauntlet

Rangifer, 1996
A management strategy for woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) habitat is being developed in northwestern Ontario. This strategy is based upon a set of draft Timber Management Guidelines for the Provision of Woodland Caribou Habitat.

Annual and monthly range fidelity of female boreal woodland caribou in respons to petroleum development

Rangifer, 2010
Petroleum-sector development in northern Alberta, Canada has been implicated as one factor influencing the decline of boreal woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou).

Demographic responses of a threatened, low-density ungulate to annual variation in meteorological and phenological conditions.

PLoS ONE, 2021
As global climate change progresses, wildlife management will benefit from knowledge of demographic responses to climatic variation, particularly for species already endangered by other stressors.

Status of woodland caribou in Saskatchewan

Rangifer, 1998
Recent research has shown that woodland caribou in Saskatchewan exist as relatively separate populations within a metapopulation. Preliminary analyses show that individuals within all populations are selecting peatland habitat types (i.e., fens and bogs) throughout the year.

Spatial patterning of prey at reproduction to reduce predation risk: what drives dispersion from groups? [PDF]

, 2016
Group living is a widespread behavior thought to be an evolutionary adaptation for reducing predation risk. Many group-living species, however, spend a portion of their life cycle as dispersed individuals, suggesting that the costs and benefits of these ...
