Book Description
Report of a stratified transect strip survey in which caribou were counted on aerial photographs. The survey was carried out on the Beverly caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) herd in June 1988 on the herds calving grounds in the central eastern Northwest Territories. Total population was estimated at about 108,000 caribou indicating that the herd is no longer increasing as appeared to be the case in 1984.
