Movements and distribution of the porcupine caribou herd, 1970-1990 / Donald E. Russell ... [et al.].: CW69-5/138E-PDF
"This report represents 20 years of data on the movements and distribution of the international Porcupine Caribou Herd. Surveys have been conducted by numerous companies and government agencies in response to a few significant development proposals. These data have lain in scattered, sometimes contradictory reports, government files and on raw radio tracking data forms. We have attempted to bring together all known data (digitized on a SPANS geographic information system) in order to standardize the information that is increasingly being used, for example, to map sensitive habitats or explore distributions in relation to snow conditions and insect levels. For all distributions, the area occupied and, when available, an estimate of the number of animals associated with each distribution is reported. The report cautions the limitations of these data, however"--Abstract.
