Relations, not Resources: Dena K’éh as Anti-colonial Force Against Yukon Wildlife Management
Resource
Abstract Dena K’éh, the Kaska Dena language, guides brilliant and complex relations with caribou and other non-human Dena; relations that collide with foundational principles of Yukon wildlife...
Setting a Foundation for Indigenous Knowledge Systems-guided Boreal Caribou (tǫdzı) Conservation Planning in the Western Boreal Region of Canada: A Systematic Map Protocol
Resource
Abstract In recent years, researchers have increasingly recognized the need to bridge Western and Indigenous knowledge systems to strengthen research in wildlife conservation. Historically, this arena...
Soil: The Environmental Integrator
Resource
Soil is defined in terms of dynamic circulation patterns of water, air and minerals driven by solar energy. The soil is the reactor and exchanger of energy and matter and, as such, is the terrestrial...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
The Density of Anthropogenic Features Explains Seasonal and Behaviour-based Functional Responses in Selection of Linear Features by a Social Predator
Resource
Anthropogenic linear features facilitate access and travel efficiency for predators, and can influence predator distribution and encounter rates with prey. We used GPS collar data from eight wolf...
The Distribution of Nutrients and Organic Matter in Native Mountain Grasslands and Reclaimed Coal-mined Areas in Southeastern B.C.
Resource
The study's purpose is to assess the nutrient self-sufficiency of five-year-old reclaimed areas in montane and subalpine environments. Adjacent, undisturbed native grasslands were also studied for...
The Effects of Maternal Penning on the Movement Ecology of Mountain Caribou
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
The Effects of Variable Retention Harvesting on Caribou Terrestrial Forage Lichens
Resource
Northern caribou depend on terrestrial lichens as a primary source of food during winter. This paper illustrates how changes in harvesting intensity affect terrestrial lichen abundance, species...
The Impact of Mountain Pine Beetle Outbreaks and their Treatment Methods on the Abundance of Plant-foods Important to Caribou and Grizzly Bears
Resource
In Alberta, Canada, mountain pine beetle (MPB) infestations overlap with threatened caribou and grizzly bear ranges. While MPB is a natural part of the ecosystem, increased intensity of infestation...
The Spatial Patterns of Anthropogenic Disturbance in the Western Canadian Boreal Forest Following Oil and Gas Development
Resource
Resource development can have significant consequences for the distribution of vegetation cover and for species persistence. Modelling changes to anthropogenic disturbance regimes over time can...
Toward the Restoration of Caribou Habitat: Understanding Factors Associated with Human Motorized Use of Legacy Seismic Lines
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Towards the Restoration of Caribou Habitat: Understanding Factors Associated with Human Motorized Use of Legacy Seismic Lines

Trophic Consequences of Terrestrial Eutrophication for a Threatened Ungulate
Resource
Conservation actions directed at the proximate cause of caribou decline have been more successful in the near term than those directed further along the trophic chain.
"Two-Eyed Seeing": An Indigenous Framework to Transform Fisheries Research and Management
Resource
Increasingly, fisheries researchers and managers seek or are compelled to “bridge” Indigenous knowledge systems with Western scientific approaches to understanding and governing fisheries. Here, we...
Understory Forage on Seismic Lines
Resource
The paper by the fRI Research Caribou Program investigates seismic lines for their abundance of forage plants, which could attract predators of caribou such as bears as well as alternate prey for...
Ungulate Occurrence in Forest Harvest Blocks is Influenced by Forage Availability, Surrounding Habitat, and Silviculture Practices - Summary
Resource
In Canada, the young forests created by harvesting have shifted the distribution and abundance of deer, elk, and moose. A consequence is unsustainable caribou predation by shared predators like bears...
Ungulate Occurrence in Forest Harvest Blocks is Influenced by Forage Availability, Surrounding Habitat, and Silviculture Practices
Resource
Forest harvesting causes habitat loss and alteration and can change predator– prey dynamics. In Canada, forest harvesting has shifted the distribution and abundance of ungulates (deer, elk and moose)...
