Evaluation of the special conservation measures for Greater Snow Geese : report of the Greater Snow Goose Working Group / edited by Eric T. Reed and Anna M. Calvert. : CW66-267/2007E
This report outlines the success of the special conservation measures (Canada) and liberalization of regular hunting season regulations (Canada and the United States) in halting the growth of the Greater Snow Goose population. Results presented in the first section of this report greatly expand our understanding of factors affecting the population dynamics of geese in general and Greater Snow Geese in particular. Of particular interest is the detailed review of the impacts of harvest and associated disturbances on demographic parameters and growth rate of the Greater Snow Goose population. The second section of the report uses the most up-to-date scientific information to project potential growth of the population under a number of harvest scenarios.
