Science-informed Policy Decisions Lead to the Creation of a Protected Area for a Wide-ranging Species at Risk
Resource
Protected areas are needed to conserve nature and biodiversity worldwide. The province of Québec (Canada) recently established a large wilderness area affording significant habitat protection for...
Selection for Forage and Avoidance of Risk by Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) at Coarse and Local Scales
Resource
The relationship between selection at coarse and fine spatiotemporal spatial scales is still poorly understood. Some authors claim that, to accommodate different needs at different scales, individuals...
Semi-aquatic Mammals: Annotated Bibliography
Resource
Annotated bibliography contains 776 entries grouped under the species: muskrat, beaver, mink, and otter
Space-use Behaviour of Woodland Caribou Based on a Cognitive Movement Model
Resource
Movement patterns offer a rich source of information on animal behaviour and the ecological significance of landscape attributes. This is especially useful for species occupying remote landscapes...
Stairway to Heaven or Highway to Hell? How Characteristics of Forest Roads Shape their use by Large Mammals in the Boreal Forest
Resource
By showing which forest roads are more used by caribou predators (wolves and bears) and its apparent competitor (moose), our study highlights the importance of considering both road-scale characteristics and the landscape context in which roads are built to prioritize the most detrimental roads to caribou conservation and guide efficient restoration efforts of its habitat.
The Direct and Habitat-mediated Influence of Climate on the Biogeography of Boreal Caribou in Canada
Resource
Effective species conservation efforts require insight into whether a species’ extent of occurrence may shift due to changing climate, habitat loss, or both. The extent of occurrence of the threatened...
The Influence of Habitat Alteration on Density of Invading White-tailed Deer Should not be Discounted
Resource
This is a letter to the editor responding to an earlier article. Growing white-tailed deer populations in Canada's boreal forest are linked to declines of threatened boreal caribou populations. Recent...
There is Still Time to Reconcile Forest Management With Climate-driven Declines in Habitat Suitability for Boreal Caribou
Resource
This study used the LANDIS-II forest landscape model to forecast boreal caribou habitat suitability across its distribution within the harvestable boreal forest in Québec for the period 2020–2100...

Thresholds in the Capacity of Boreal Caribou to Cope with Cumulative Disturbances: Evidence From Space Use Patterns
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...
Trophic Niche Partitioning Between Two Prey and Their Incidental Predators Revealed Various Threats for an Endangered Species
Resource
Documenting trophic niche partitioning and resource use within a community is critical to evaluate underlying mechanisms of coexistence, competition, or predation. Detailed knowledge about foraging is...
Video - Atlantic-Gaspesie Caribou: Population Trends & Conservation Challenges
Resource
At the 14th North American Caribou Workshop in September 2012, Martin-Hugues St-Laurent presented on the state of the Atlantic-Gaspesie Caribou (DU11). This Designatable Unit is the smallest in Canada...
Video - Avoidance of Roads by Forest Dwelling Caribou and the Relation to Disturbance Intensity
Resource
At the 14th North American Caribou Workshop, held in September 2012, Mathieu Leblond presented on research related to caribou and road avoidance behaviour.
Video - Calving Area Selection and Calf Survival in a Highly Managed Landscape
Resource
At the 14th North American Caribou Workshop held in September 2012, Martin Leclerc presented results from research of 38 collared female caribou in Quebec.
Webinar - 30 Years of Change: Linking Habitat, Predators and Alternative Prey to Explain Recruitment Variations of an Endangered Caribou Population
Resource
Woodland caribou populations suffer from habitat modifications and most are currently in decline. It has been suggested that the conversion of old-growth coniferous forests into early-seral stages has...
“We’re Made Criminals Just to Eat off the Land”: Colonial Wildlife Management and Repercussions on Inuit Well-Being
Resource
This study characterizes Inuit-caribou relationships; explores Inuit perspectives on how caribou have been managed; and identifies opportunities for sustaining the Mealy Mountain Caribou. Abstract...
