Adaptive strategies of Woodland caribou : a progress report to the Canadian Wildlife Service / by H.E. Butler.: CW66-950/1979E-PDF

"I am studying adaptive strategies of woodland caribou. By investigating variation between populations in behavior, aorphology and physiology, this study proposes to examine the adaptations that have allowed these animals to exploit different habitat types. This subspecies has successfully existed over a wide range of habitat types including lakestate forest, boreal forest, subalpine and tundra. My study areas constrast in food availability, predation pressure (including mammalian predators and harrassing insects), climatic factors, terrain (escape habitat) and population density"--Introduction.
