This is the Executive Summary of the Wolf (Dìga) Management Pilot Program Technical Report 2020, Manuscript No. 313. For a full copy of the report, please contact Patricia LaCroix, Wildlife Division, Environment and Climate Change, GNWT.
The goal of the five-year wolf (dìga) management program is to sufficiently reduce wolf (dìga) predation on the Bathurst and Bluenose-East herds to allow for an increase in calf and adult caribou (ekwǫ̀) survival rates to contribute to the stabilization and recovery of both herds. This report summarizes wolf management and monitoring activities undertaken by GNWT and Tłı̨chǫ Government during 2023. It provides an update to the previous reports on wolf management activities in Wek’èezhìı during winter 2020 (Nishi et al., 2020), 2021 (Clark et al., 2021), and 2022 (Wilson et al., 2022) and is intended to fulfill the WRRB’s recommendation (#20-2020) that an “annual report be prepared by GNWT and TG and presented to the Board at a scheduled board meeting to allow for the discussion of adjustments in methodology based on the evidence, beginning fall 2021”.
