Population ecology studies of the polar bear in northern Labrador / Ian Stirling, H.P.L. Kiliaan. : CW69-1/42E-PDF
"During spring 1976-79 we marked and recaptured polar bears in northern Labrador. Thirty-seven polar bears were captured and individually tagged. Most were found along the interface between the coastal landfast ice and the drifting pack ice, especially around the mouths of bays. The mark and recapture data indicated a low population (60-90 bears) in the area. Fifty to 80% fewer polar bears and tracks were seen per 100 km of potential habitat surveyed than recorded for other areas of the Arctic. This also indicates a smaller population"--Abstract.
