The West-Central BC Caribou Research Project was set up to investigate potential effects of logging on caribou in the Tweedsmuir-Entiako and Itcha-Ilgachuz-Rainbow areas. The original studies were expanded to include more intensive investigations of winter range and population parameters. The objectives of the project were to determine seasonal movements, habitat use and food habits of caribou in these areas, especially during winter so that logging guidelines compatible with caribou winter habitat use could be developed; and to determine population size, calf production, and calf and adult survival, so that current population status and limiting factors could be determined. This report summarizes results on caribou seasonal movements, habitat use and food habits. The report discusses methods for capture and marking, seasonal movements and habitat use, snow measurements, winter feeding ecology and fecal analyses. Results and discussion are also provided for these as well as for winter forest cover type use.

Download Resource Selection by Animals Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
We have written this book as a guide to the design and analysis of field studies of resource selection, concentrating primarily on statistical aspects of the comparison of the use and availability of resources of different types. Our intended audience is field ecologists in general and, in particular, wildlife and fisheries biologists who are attempting to measure the extent to which real animal populations are selective in their choice of food and habitat. As such, we have made no attempt to address those aspects of theoretical ecology that are concerned with how animals might choose their resources if they acted in an optimal manner. The book is based on the concept of a resource selection function (RSF), where this is a function of characteristics measured on resourceunits such that its value for a unit is proportional to the probability of that unit being used. We argue that this concept leads to a unified theory for the analysis and interpretation of data on resource selection and can replace many ad hoc statistical methods that have been used in the past.

Aspects of snow conditions, plant community use, and feeding habits were examined for caribou occupying the Cape Churchill Wildlife Management Area. Studies were carried out over each of the 1989-90 and 1990-91 snow seasons. Attempts were made to interrelate feeding habits and plant community use with changing snow conditions based on 7 snow stations set up within four taiga and three tundra plant communities. Fundamental differences between taiga and tundra snow conditions are also discussed. Plant communities were described based on quadrat and point quarter methods, prior to snowfall, within each of four taiga and three tundra plant community snow stations. Snow conditions at snow stations and caribou feeding sites were quantified through the excavation and examination of snow profiles... Taiga and tundra snow conditions are fundamentally different. This was primarily due to the effects of wind on the more exposed tundra and the relative lack of wind in the taiga... Cape Churchill caribou displayed a wide use of plant communities that varied both throughout the snow seasons and between them. Snow conditions within taiga plant communities differed both between themselves over both snow seasons, and differed between the two snow seasons. Tundra plant communities also displayed variability over the same periods though not as severe as taiga sites. Cape Churchill caribou did however remain in feeding sites beyond threshold levels if suitable alternate plant communities were not available. These data imply that conventional wildlife management techniques used to determine caribou range tend dramatically to underestimate actual requirements. Through the long term field monitoring of representative plant community snow conditions and winter habitat use by caribou, a more realistic estimate of caribou range can be achieved.
