Book excerpt: This report details reproductive processes in barren-ground caribou and how they are influenced by variables that reflect the physical condition of caribou. Results presented are part of a study conducted 1980-87 on effects of fire on winter range of the Beverly herd, and in which samples were obtained from 856 females in the herd. Variables studied include body weight, back fat depth, kidney fat, femur length and marrow fat content, mandibular water, antler weight, various condition indices, and number of warble fly larvae. Relationships between fecundity and condition variables were examined in four ways: relationships between means of condition variables and fecundity in samples for females older than 4 years, and for females aged 3.5-4 and 2.5-3 years; statistical comparisons of condition variable means for pregnant and non-pregnant females in seven age classes; examination of frequency distributions of condition variables at intervals through tier ranges in pregnant and non-pregnant females of breeding age; and pregnancy rates of females at intervals through the range of each condition variable.

Book excerpt: Presents results of studies of the winter diet of barren-ground caribou from the Beverly herd, as determined from 1,258 samples collected over 1980-87. Fecal or rumen samples were analyzed using microhistological techniques to identify presence of recognizable plant fragments. Secondary objectives of the study were to compare results from rumen and fecal samples from the same composite group of caribou, and to evaluate diet differences among sampling procedures, duplicates, sex, ages, physical condition, season, years, location, and habitat type. Testing for sex, age, and condition differences has important implications regarding use of pellets to assess diet of caribou of unknown sex, age, and condition. The results are intended to help evaluate the validity of the technique to assess diet from feces collected on winter ranges.

Book excerpt: This report consists of a series of conclusions and recommendations concerning the winter ecology of barren- ground caribou and effects of fire on the winter range of the Beverly herd, mainly in the Northwest Territories. The conclusions are accompanied by summaries of supporting data from other reports and explanatory remarks. Conclusions 1-17 provide background information on winter ecology of caribou, with a focus on the effects of burns; topics include the adequacy of winter range for the herd in the 1980s, influences of burns on caribou movement and distribution, caribou diet, effect of snow on caribou movement, and effect of burns on caribou forage (notably lichens). Conclusions 18-33 consider priorities for fire management and conclusions 34-39 identify information and research needs.
