COSEWIC status report on the caribou, Rangifer tarandus, eastern migratory population, Torngat Mountains population, in Canada. "Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are a medium-sized member of the deer family. Their relatively long legs and large hooves facilitate living in deep snow associated with northern environments. Caribou are central to the culture, spirituality, and subsistence of many northern Aboriginal communities, and are also important to non-Aboriginal people across Canada. Caribou exhibit high variability in morphology, ecology, and behaviour across their circumpolar range. In 2011, COSEWIC recognized 12 designatable units (DUs); this report assesses the Eastern Migratory population (EM; DU4), and the Torngat Mountains population (TM; DU 10)"--Provided by publisher. gccst Endangered species gccst Mammals gccst Nature conservation Caribou Côté, Steeve D., 1970- Festa-Bianchet, Marco, 1958- Forbes, Graham.
