An examination of recovery planning for forest-dwelling woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Ontario, Canada [PDF]
Rangifer, 2008 Ontario’s population of forest-dwelling woodland caribou is listed both federally and provincially as a species at risk. It is estimated that 20 000 woodland caribou remain in Ontario, of which approximately one quarter inhabit the boreal forest and are ...

The diet of woodland caribou populations in west-central Alberta
Rangifer, 1996 The diet of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) populations in the foothills and Rocky Mountains of west-central Alberta was estimated by microhistological analyses of feces collected in winter and summer. In winter, terrestrial lichens averaged 60-83% of fecal fragment densities in both areas.

Woodland caribou: Facts for forest managers
The Forestry Chronicle, 1992 A literature review points to predation as the proximate factor controlling woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) populations in most cases, but that finding does not obviate the need for caribou to be included in forest management. Managers must consider the indirect effects of forest operations on caribou through their impacts on caribou ...

The role of predation in the decline and extirpation of woodland caribou [PDF]
Oecologia, 2005 To select appropriate recovery strategies for endangered populations, we must understand the dynamics of small populations and distinguish between the possible causes that drive such populations to low numbers. It has been suggested that the pattern of population decline may be inversely density-dependent with population growth rates decreasing as ...

Restoration of Woodland Caribou to the Lake Superior Region [PDF]
, 1994 Woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) historically occupied the boreal forest zone across the North American continent. The distribution and abundance of the species has declined in the past century. In particular, it has been extirpated from much

Estimation of arboreal lichen biomass available to woodland caribou in Hudson Bay lowland black spruce sites [PDF]
Rangifer, 2003 An arboreal lichen index to be utilized in assessing woodland caribou habitat throughout northeastern Ontario was developed. The "index" was comprised of 5 classes, which differentiated arboreal lichen biomass on black spruce trees, ranging from maximal ...
