Book COSEWIC Assessment and Status Report on the Caribou  Rangifer Tarandus  Dolphin and Union Population  in Canada

Download or read book COSEWIC Assessment and Status Report on the Caribou Rangifer Tarandus Dolphin and Union Population in Canada written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The population is experiencing multiple threats, including reduced connectivity and disrupted migration between winter and summer range associated with commercial shipping in Dease Strait that is increasingly supported by ice-breakers. Climate change is linked with decreased periods of ice cover and irregularity of sea ice conditions, causing mortality through drowning and delays in migration with consequences for nutrition and parasite burdens. Overharvest has been involved in past declines and recent exploitation levels are unknown, although access opportunities from five additional communities have increased. The spread of insect pests and pathogens as a consequence of climate change is an additional concern. Natural fluctuations of the population remain a source of uncertainty"--Assessment Summary, p. iii.

Côté and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are a medium-sized member of the deer family. Their relatively long legs and large hooves facilitate living in deep snow associated with northern environments. Caribou are central to the culture, spirituality, and subsistence of many northern Aboriginal communities, and are also important to non-Aboriginal people across Canada. Caribou exhibit high variability in morphology, ecology, and behaviour across their circumpolar range. In 2011, COSEWIC recognized 12 designatable units (DUs); this report assesses the Eastern Migratory population (EM; DU4), and the Torngat Mountains population (TM; DU 10)"--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Knowledge Assessment community and Scientific to Inform the Identification of Critical Habitat for Peary Caribou Rangifer Tarandus Pearyi in the Canadian Arctic written by Cheryl Ann Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report describes work undertaken to inform the identification of critical habitat for Peary caribou (Rangifer tarandus pearyi) in Canada, as part of the requirement for the preparation of a federal Recovery Strategy for this species under the federal Species at Risk Act. The Recovery Strategy is being completed through a separate process by the Canadian Wildlife Service. The report presents a conceptual framework outlining the steps in the knowledge assessment process to inform the identification of critical habitat for Peary caribou based on scientific and community knowledge. It describes the necessary and available data to support implementation of the framework, and uses a variety of analytical procedures and assessment criteria to evaluate and describe population condition and habitat requirements across the current species distribution of Peary caribou in Canada. While data limitations and knowledge gaps that would enhance our understanding and address outstanding uncertainties are discussed, the report concludes that the available body of knowledge is sufficient from a science perspective to inform the identification of critical habitat for Peary caribou. Methodologies to update this assessment with new information are presented, as part of an adaptive management cycle to support the recovery of this species"--Preface, p. i.

Book excerpt: "If the caribou die, then we die." These few words speak eloquently to the significanceof caribou for northern peoples. They were spoken not by a wise old chief, but by a 13-year-old Dene youth in 2007 during a hearing regarding uranium exploration on the caribou wintering grounds. Right now there is urgent, widespread concern about the future of the most centralof species: caribou. Caribou and the North brings both the facts and the feelingsof the current situation to a North American readership. The writers look at why we need to conserve the caribou, the threats that have faced caribou in the past, present, and future, and the actions that we can take. Also included is an appendixwith up-to-date information on the range, movements, habitats, numbers, population trends, and key threats to caribou in North America.

Book Traditional Knowledge in Food Activism and Governance

Download or read book Traditional Knowledge in Food Activism and Governance written by Andrea Pieroni and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-08-16 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current debate on Traditional Knowledge (TK) and food heritage has had momentum in recent years, mainly thanks to the remarkable interest of some local and national institutions, small-scale producers, and emerging chefs. However, in the scientific arena, the process of documenting traditional knowledge and the heritage of local foods is often addressed by itself, and is not well connected to deeper reflections of the actual participatory processes involved in local development or to the manners through which TK informs public discourse regarding local foods and how this may further influence activists, institutions, and governance.
