Download or read book Habitat Use and Seasonal Movements by Woodland Caribou in East-central British Columbia written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1988, the British Columbia Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks initiated the Mountain Caribou and Managed Forests program in response to forestry conflicts related to timber harvesting in the caribou's winter range. This report provides information from the radio-telemetry component of the program, 1988-91, designed to determine seasonal movements and habitat use patterns by mountain caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) east of Prince George, British Columbia. The data focus on seasonal habitat selection within the Engelmann spruce/subalpine fir biogeoclimatic zone, where mountain caribou spend the winter foraging on arboreal lichens. The results presented include the types of forest stands used by the caribou, when those sites were used, and seasonal use of slopes.

Book Synopsis Seasonal Movements, Habitat Utilization, and Population Ecology of Woodland Caribou (Rangifer Tarandus Caribou Gmelin) in the Wallace-Aikens Lake Region of Southeastern Manitoba by : William Richard Darby
Download or read book Seasonal Movements, Habitat Utilization, and Population Ecology of Woodland Caribou (Rangifer Tarandus Caribou Gmelin) in the Wallace-Aikens Lake Region of Southeastern Manitoba written by William Richard Darby and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the general public has some knowledge of migratory barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus L.), but few people realize that a larger counterpart, the woodland caribou (R. t. caribou Gmelin), exists in southern Canada. At present, the latter's range includes Newfoundland and most undeveloped areas of the boreal coniferous forest. Prior to European settlement, it included parts of the northern United States, but since 1750, the southern limit of distribution has receded steadily. In the past, representatives of the genus Rangifer were divided into many species and subspecies by several classification schemes. Banfield (1961) consolidated all races into one species (Rangifer tarandus) with five extant subspecies in North America: woodland caribou (R. t. caribou Gmelin), Grant's caribou (R. t. granti Allen) of the Yukon Territory and Alaska, barren-ground caribou (R. t. groenlandicus L.) of northern Canada, Peary's caribou (R. t. pearyi Allen) of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, and domestic reindeer (R. t. tarandus L.) of the Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, Northwest Territories. However, consolidation of the genus by Banfield (1961) did not obviate the fact that many differences in behaviour still exist among the incorporated races, including those within the R. t. caribou subspecies (cf. Shoesmith 1978). Investigations of woodland caribou in closed forest habitat are exceedingly difficult, and little information exists on their ecology. 0ften, extrapolations cannot be made from the existing literature. Reasons for the shrinking distribution and decline of woodland caribou are controversial. Nonetheless, widespread development of caribou habitat has always been attended by disappearance of the subspecies. Woodland caribou constitute a valuable resource for tourism, recreation, and the economy of native people. If mismanaged, the resource will disappear. Baseline data on woodland caribou in developing areas of Manitoba are needed. Information on the ecology of local populations would be valuable in making management decisions. This study was initiated to obtain data on caribou in the Wallace-Aikens lakes area of southeastern Manitoba. For purposes of convenience, the caribou in this area will be referred to as the Aikens Lake herd. The major objectives were: (l) to gather information on seasonal movements, distribution, and herd behaviour; and (2) to collect data on herd size, reproduction, mortality, and other aspects of population ecology. A minor objective was to examine aspects of habitat utilization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cooperative effort by USDA Forest Service Research and the National Forest System assesses the state of knowledge related to the conservation status of four forest carnivores in the western United States: American marten, fisher, lynx, and wolverine. The conservation assessment reviews the biology and ecology of these species. It also discusses management considerations stemming from what is known and identifies information needed. Overall, we found huge knowledge gaps that make it difficult to evaluate the species' conservation status.

Book Synopsis Terrestrial Mammal Conservation: Global Evidence for the Effects of Interventions for Terrestrial Mammals Excluding Bats and Primates by : Nick A. Littlewood
Download or read book Terrestrial Mammal Conservation: Global Evidence for the Effects of Interventions for Terrestrial Mammals Excluding Bats and Primates written by Nick A. Littlewood and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 714 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrestrial Mammal Conservation provides a thorough summary of the available scientific evidence of what is known, or not known, about the effectiveness of all of the conservation actions for wild terrestrial mammals across the world (excluding bats and primates, which are covered in separate synopses). Actions are organized into categories based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature classifications of direct threats and conservation actions. Over the course of fifteen chapters, the authors consider interventions as wide ranging as creating uncultivated margins around fields, prescribed burning, setting hunting quotas and removing non-native mammals. This book is written in an accessible style and is designed to be an invaluable resource for anyone concerned with the practical conservation of terrestrial mammals. The authors consulted an international group of terrestrial mammal experts and conservationists to produce this synopsis. Funding was provided by the MAVA Foundation, Arcadia and National Geographic Big Cats Initiative. Terrestrial Mammal Conservation is the seventeenth publication in the Conservation Evidence Series, linked to the online resource www.ConservationEvidence.com. Conservation Evidence Synopses are designed to promote a more evidence-based approach to biodiversity conservation. Others in the series include Bat Conservation, Primate Conservation, Bird Conservation and Forest Conservation and more are in preparation. Expert assessment of the evidence summarised within synopses is provided online and within the annual publication What Works in Conservation.
