This report details the calving ground photo survey of the Bluenose-East caribou herd conducted during June of 2015 in Nunavut (NU), near Kugluktuk, NU.
This report details the calving ground photo survey of the Bluenose-East caribou herd conducted during June of 2013 in Nunavut (NU), near Kugluktuk, NU.
The work described in this article was carried out to better understand environmental, temporal and spatial variables that may be affecting the Bathurst and Bluenose-East caribou herds and their ranges.
The article discusses a technique developed to use stratified network sampling to sample animal tracks in the snow and to obtain to population estimates.
Key words: aerial survey, Canis lupus, furbearer, gray wolf, large scale, network sampling, population estimation, probability sampling, snow, tracks.
During 1986–1992, investigations were conducted on the population dynamics and harvests of wolves in the newly created Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve in northern Alaska, USA, where wolves were harvested by local residents. The objectives were to determine wolf abundance, estimate important vital rates (i.e., productivity, survival, emigration), and characterize wolf harvests.
This report describes the results of a calving ground photo survey of the Bathurst caribou herd conducted in June of 2018 near Bathurst Inlet in Nunavut (NU).
This is a summary report from the GNWT and TG to the WRRB that projects the possible implications of current wolf management on the productivity of the Bathurst and Bluenose East herds.
This is technical report from the GNWT and TG to the WRRB, detailing the 2020 Wolf Pilot Program and key lessons learned as well as successes and key insights.
The Wolf (Dìga) Tehnical Feasibility Assessment summarizes key information about wolf management options and their risks with details listed in the appendices. The appendices provide the information that was used in the assessment of options, as well as background information in support of the assumptions and approaches.
