Range types and their relative use by Peary caribou and muskoxen on Melville Island, NWT / Don C. Thomas, E.J. Edmonds, and H.J. Armbruster.: CW69-5/343E-PDF

The primary objective was to compare relative past use of range types by Peary caribou (Rangifer tarandus pearyi) and muskoxen (Ovibos moschatus) as measured by fecal densities. Assessing the relative importance of range types to caribou and muskoxen was one step in helping to understand their ecology and conservation as developments encroached on former wilderness"--Abstract, p. i.
