Managing Wolves (Canis Lupus) to Recover Threatened Woodland Caribou (Rangifer Tarandus Caribou) in Alberta
Resource
Across Canada, woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)) populations are declining because of human-induced changes to food webs that are resulting in apparent competition-induced...
Moose Lake Access Management Plan
Resource
This plan provides land-use resource development direction for industry and regulators for the Moose Lake 10km zone, a planning area located approximately 100 kilometers northwest of Fort McMurray in...
Nested Population Structure of Threatened Boreal Caribou Revealed by Network Analysis
Resource
Delineating relevant local populations of widely distributed species is a common challenge in conservation ecology. Caribou and reindeer ( Rangifer tarandus) are in general decline throughout their...
Novel Multilayer Network Analysis to Assess Variation in the Spatial Co-occurrences of Close Kin in Wild Caribou Populations
Resource
Abstract Understanding how individuals within populations are connected genetically and through shared space-use is critical to understanding the demographic patterns of at-risk populations. In recent...
Population Dynamics of Caribou Shaped by Glacial Cycles Before the Last Glacial Maximum
Resource
Pleistocene glacial cycles influenced the diversification of high- latitude wildlife species through recurrent periods of range contraction, isolation, divergence, and expansion from refugia and...
Predation Risk for Boreal Woodland Caribou in Human-modified Landscapes: Evidence of Wolf Spatial Responses Independent of Apparent Competition
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...
Provincial Restoration and Establishment Framework for Legacy Seismic Lines
Resource
Restoration of legacy features, particularly seismic lines, is a key tool in range planning for woodland caribou in Alberta. This Provincial Restoration and Establishment Framework (“the framework”)...
Remote Camera Survey Guidelines and Metadata Standards for Western Alberta
Resource
This current resource webpage (deployed by GitHub) provides links to the online version of both the Remote Camera Survey Guidelines: Guidelines for Western Canada (RCSC et al., 2023) and Remote Camera...
Restoration of Linear Disturbances From Oil-and-gas Exploration in Boreal Landscapes: How can Network Models Help?
Resource
Abstract In western Canada, decades of oil-and-gas exploration have fragmented boreal landscapes with a dense network of linear forest disturbances (seismic lines). These seismic lines are implicated...
Saving Endangered Species Using Adaptive Management
Resource
Adaptive management is a powerful means of learning about complex ecosystems, but is rarely used for recovering endangered species. Here, we demonstrate how it can benefit woodland caribou, which...
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.
Video - A Woodland Caribou Policy for Alberta
Resource
This 2012 presentation reviews where the Government of Alberta is at on caribou recovery.
Video - Nutritional Mechanism Impairs Caribou Pregnancy in the Alberta Oil Sands
Resource
At the 14th North American Caribou Workshop held in September 2012, Jonah Keim presented results of research looking into the impact of nutrition on caribou in the Alberta oil sands region.
Visual Guide for Implementing the Restoration and Establishment Framework in Woodland Caribou Habitat in Alberta
Resource
Quality control and monitoring have become critical steps in habitat restoration programs in woodland caribou habitat in Alberta. This visual guide complements the Provincial Restoration and...
Webinar - Habitat Loss on Seasonal Migratory Range Imperils an Endangered Ungulate: Implications for Redefining Critical Habitat for Mountain Caribou
Resource
Using a telemetry location dataset spanning 1981 – 2018, we tested for changes in prevalence of migratory tactics (resident, migrant) over time, switching between tactics, shifts in seasonal space-use...
Widespread Declines in Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) Continue in Alberta
Resource
Nowhere across Canada is the continued persistence of woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)) more uncertain than in Alberta due to widespread industrial development. A recent...
Wildlife Camera Metadata Standards for Alberta Version 1.0
Resource
This document was created by the Alberta Remote Camera Steering Committee (RCSC). The Alberta RCSC is chaired by Alberta Environment and Parks and comprises a group of wildlife camera experts from...
Wildlife Habitat Requirements Summaries for Selected Wildlife Species in Alberta
Resource

Woodland Caribou Population Dynamics in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Twenty-nine caribou in the Birch Mountains of northeastern Alberta were radio collared and repeatedly located from fixed wing aircraft. Late-winter density of 1 caribou/24km2. Total 433 caribou
