Download or read book Caribou Habitat Use in the Chelaslie River Migration Corridor and Recommendations for Management written by J. D. Steventon and published by B.C. Ministry of Forests, Forestry Division Services Branch, Production Resources. This book was released on 1996 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes a project that intended to determine the relative importance of the Chelaslie River study area to caribou (Rangifer tarandus), to determine whether habitats exist in the area which are preferentially used by the caribou, and to provide habitat management recommendations. The 87,000-hectare study area is located south of Ootsa Lake and north of Tetachuck Lake, east of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park in British Columbia. The area was selected to be larger than a previously defined caribou migration corridor in order to incorporate all observed locations of caribou, which were monitored by radio tracking from spring 1993 to spring 1995. Results presented include degree of use of the migration corridor, and habitat selection by season and within subzones of the area.

This report presents results of phase 2 of the Project, which focussed on the use of forested habitat & seasonal movement patterns by caribou of the Wolverine Herd, 1994-97. The report begins with background on the characteristics of the study area and the research methods used, which included capture & radio collaring of 27 caribou, monitoring of the collared caribou by radio telemetry during radio tracking flights during summer & winter, habitat analyses based on forest cover maps, and statistical analyses of correlations between caribou locations & habitat type. Results from 756 radio locations obtained over the three years are presented & discussed with regard to seasonal movements, seasonal habitat use, selection of seasonal home ranges, selection of forest cover types within home ranges, annual variation in habitat use, and population characteristics (mortality, population density). Based on the results, recommendations are made regarding caribou management and further research."--Publisher's description.

Book excerpt: What do you do when you decide you no longer want to be responsible for anyone but yourself? When faced with that moment, Donna Kane leaves her twenty-five-year marriage for life with a conservationist and wilderness guide who is so certain of the path he is on that she thinks she’s just along for the ride. A few days before Kane’s new husband leaves for a three-month horse-pack expedition, a gelding is seriously injured, and she agrees to stay behind to tend the horse’s wound. In the quiet moments spent with the horse each day, she reflects on her transition into the new relationship, the wilderness of the unknown, and her struggles with personal autonomy and independence. A deft writer, Kane takes readers on her inaugural trail ride into the stunning Muskwa-Kechika protected area, known as the “Serengeti of the North.” She rides with a pack string of horses over mountain passes, into boreal forests, along swamps and sand flats, crossing creeks and fast-flowing rivers. A novice horsewoman traversing new terrain, she is startled out of her familiar routines and must examine her assumptions of the wild, within and without, to find her place in the world. With honesty and humility, Kane reveals the folly, surprise and knowledge—of the world and of the self—that can come from setting foot in the headstrong currents of the unknown. Including striking photos of the Muskwa-Kechika and the pack string horses, the book touches on universal issues of ecological protection and individual identity. Summer of the Horse is sure to captivate readers interested in equine pursuits as well as those concerned with the ecological issues facing BC’s far north.

Shi-shi-etko is about to return for her second year, but this time her six-year-old brother, Shin-chi, is going, too. As they begin their journey in the back of a cattle truck, Shi-shi-etko tells her brother all the things he must remember: the trees, the mountains, the rivers and the salmon. Shin-chi knows he won't see his family again until the sockeye salmon return in the summertime. When they arrive at school, Shi-shi-etko gives him a tiny cedar canoe, a gift from their father. The children's time is filled with going to mass, school for half the day, and work the other half. The girls cook, clean and sew, while the boys work in the fields, in the woodshop and at the forge. Shin-chi is forever hungry and lonely, but, finally, the salmon swim up the river and the children return home for a joyful family reunion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the magical time between night and day, when both the sun and the moon are in the sky, a child is born in a little blue house on a hill. And Miu Lan is not just any child, but one who can change into any shape they can imagine. The only problem is they can't decide what to be: A boy or a girl? A bird or a fish? A flower or a shooting star? At school, though, they must endure inquisitive looks and difficult questions from the other children, and they have trouble finding friends who will accept them for who they are. But they find comfort in the loving arms of their mother, who always offers them the same loving refrain: "whatever you dream of / i believe you can be / from the stars in the sky to the fish in the sea." In this captivating, beautifully imagined picture book about gender, identity, and the acceptance of the differences between us, Miu Lan faces many questions about who they are and who they may be. But one thing's for sure: no matter what this child becomes, their mother will love them just the same. Kai Cheng Thom is a writer, performance artist, and psychotherapist in Toronto.
