The WRRB held a public hearing to address harvest limitations for the Bathurst caribou herd in February 2016.  The Board's Reasons for Decision Final Report, Part A--Bathurst Caribou Herd includes the WRRB's final determinations on harvest for the Bathurst caribou herd, as well as its recommendations on the proposed mobile wolf hunter camp and the wolf feasibility assessment. 

This is the most recent updated version (2016) of the original guide to common fishes found in the Tłı̨chǫ region.  The guide includes diagrams showing fish anatomy (interior and exterior views) labelled in both Tłı̨chǫ and English and information on each fish species, including its ecology and use. This new edition has added photos and descriptions of fish habitat in Wek’èezhì near each of the four Tłı̨chǫ communities:  Marian Lake near Behchokǫ̀; Lac la Marte near Whatì; Rae Lakes near Gamètì; and Snare Lake near Wekweètì. 

A summary of harvest and monitoring activities for the Bathurst, Bluenose-East, and Bevery/Ahiak caribou herds in 2013/2014.

These four videos document the fish,water and sediment monitoring camps that have been held since 2011.  The "fish camps" are part of the TAEMP program, a community-based program to monitor the aquatic ecosystems near each of the four Tłı̨chǫ communities.

These two educational videos demonstrate the fish, water, and sediment sampling techniques that are used at the TAEMP fish camps.  

The ACCWM has developed the Taking Caribou of Caribou management plan for the Cape Bathurst, Bluenose-West, and Bluenose-East barren-ground caribou herds, addressing the needs to: develop a cooperative approach to managing for the herds; protect the habitat in the herds’ range; and make decisions on the shared harvests in an open and fair manner. The plan was developed in consultation with most of the communities that harvest from the three herds. The ultimate goal was to ensure that there are caribou today and for future generations. The Management Plan is a working document used in developing specific management tools such as Action Plans. This report presents the recent scientific knowledge and status of the Cape Bathurst, Bluenose-West, and Bluenose-East Caribou Herds and gaps in knowledge. Research suggestions are presented for consideration by the co-management boards responsible for managing these herds.
