Book The Barren Ground Caribou of Keewatin

Download or read book The Barren Ground Caribou of Keewatin written by Francis Harper and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-10-04 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis Harper's 'The Barren Ground Caribou of Keewatin' is a meticulously researched and beautifully written exploration of the behavior and habitat of the iconic species of caribou in the Keewatin region. Harper's detailed observations and scientific analysis provide a comprehensive understanding of these majestic creatures, making it a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and wildlife enthusiasts alike. The book is written in a clear and engaging style, making it accessible to both academic and general readers interested in the biodiversity of the Arctic wilderness. Harper's work not only contributes to the field of wildlife biology but also sheds light on the impacts of climate change and human activity on caribou populations. This book is a significant addition to the literature on Arctic ecology and conservation. Francis Harper, a renowned wildlife biologist with a deep passion for Arctic ecosystems, drew upon his extensive field experience and scientific expertise to produce 'The Barren Ground Caribou of Keewatin'. His commitment to studying and protecting the fragile balance of nature is evident in every page of this book. Harper's dedication to preserving the biodiversity of the Arctic makes this book a meaningful and timely contribution to the field of wildlife conservation. I highly recommend 'The Barren Ground Caribou of Keewatin' to anyone interested in the Arctic environment, wildlife biology, or conservation. Harper's insights and findings offer valuable perspectives on the challenges facing caribou populations and the urgent need for conservation efforts in the region. This book will undoubtedly enrich your understanding of the complex relationships between wildlife, humans, and the environment in the fragile Arctic ecosystem.

Download or read book Return of Caribou to Ungava written by A. T. Bergerud and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2007-12-19 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The George River caribou herd increased from 15,000 animals in 1958 to 700,000 in 1988 - the largest herd in the world at the time. The authors trace the fluctuations in this caribou population back to the 1700s, detail how the herd escaped extinction in the 1950s, and consider current environmental threats to its survival. In an examination of the life history and population biology of the herd, The Return of Caribou to Ungava offers a synthesis of the basic biological traits of the caribou, a new hypothesis about why they migrate, and a comparison to herd populations in North America, Scandinavia, and Russia. The authors conclude that the old maxim, "Nobody knows the way of the caribou," is no longer valid. Based on a study in which the caribou were tracked by satellite across Ungava, they find that caribou are able to navigate, even in unfamiliar habitats, and to return to their calving ground, movement that is central to the caribou's cyclical migration. The Return of Caribou to Ungava also examines whether the herd can adapt to global warming and other changing environmental realities.

Book Optimal Survey Design  Survey Intervals and Analysis Strategies for Caribou Calving Ground Surveys  Reconnaissance Surveys and Composition Surveys

Download or read book Optimal Survey Design Survey Intervals and Analysis Strategies for Caribou Calving Ground Surveys Reconnaissance Surveys and Composition Surveys written by John Boulanger and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides statistical commentary on survey methods used to monitor barren-ground caribou herds in the Northwest Territories (NWT) with an emphasis on intervals between surveys and survey precision. I provide some comments on the statistical design of surveys and some ideas to improve precision. Calving ground photo surveys and post-calving photo surveys are the most important surveys for barren-ground caribou as they provide benchmarks for herd status and management. Results of power analyses suggest that the sampling interval for these surveys should never be less than three years unless a very large change in abundance is expected. For the most likely rates of change in population size (+/- 10% per year) then a survey interval of five to six years is adequate. Composition surveys in June, fall (rut, usually late October), and late winter (March/April) are used to assess initial calf productivity, calf survival to four to five months, calf survival to nine to ten months, and sex ratio (in the fall). Representative sampling across a herd’s range is key to obtaining reliable results. Late-winter surveys are best carried out annually to capture frequently high year-to-year variation. Fall surveys to assess sex ratio are usually carried out in years of calving ground photo surveys (every three years in most NWT herds 2006-2018) and may be conducted more often if a substantial male-dominated harvest is in place. Reconnaissance surveys on the calving grounds of some herds have been used to assess trend in caribou abundance on calving grounds in years between full photographic surveys. They are much simpler and far less costly. However, variance on survey results is usually high and assessment of composition (breeding cows, non-breeding cows, yearlings and bulls) on or near the calving grounds may not be reliable. I provide recommendations to improve precision of these surveys. I note that the primary analyses in this report occurred in 2011 and since then some of the methodologies have evolved. I provide updated citations to this current work.
