C’est à la Afaveur de l’exploration des cours d’eau que les premiers Européens ont pu pénétrer plus profondément dans ces terres sauvages et y découvrir de véritables mers intérieures, soit les lacs Huron et Supérieur. Ils y rencontrèrent également des peuplades autochtones qui tiraient leur subsistance de la chasse et de la pêche, et ils s’intéressèrent rapidement à un produit très prisé sur le Vieux Continent : la fourrure. Dès le XVIIe siècle, les Européens décident d’y établir des postes de traite, afin de commercer avec les nations amérindiennes du Nord, passées maîtres dans l’art de la chasse. Cependant, ce n’est qu’au XIXe siècle que de petites villes surgissent de ces postes éparpillés aux quatre coins du territoire. Dans le présent chapitre, le Nord ontarien englobe plus de la moitié des terres de la province, une immense zone quasi inhabitée. Partout la forêt domine le paysage, et il n’est pas rare que des centaines de kilomètres séparent deux villages. Pour apprécier cette contrée sauvage, il faut aimer la solitude des grands espaces, la nature et les longues distances.

P. GOGAN AND JEAN FITTS COCHRANE Introduction Woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) historically occupied the boreal forest zone across the North American continent. The distribution and abun­ dance of the species has declined in the past century. In particular, it has been extirpated from much of the southern limits of its historical range on both sides of the boundary between Canada and the United States (Bergerud 1974). Translocation of animals from extant populations may be used to reestablish populations in portions of the species' former range. Recently, wildlife biolo­ gists in Ontario have translocated woodland caribou to a number of sites in or adjacent to Lake Superior. While it is too soon to evaluate their long-term suc­ cess, these restoration efforts do provide useful insights into factors likely to influence the outcome of woodland caribou translocations elsewhere.

There are 2,543 references (>4.2 MB) included on the diskette at the back of this volume. PAPYRUS Bibliography System software by Research Software Design of Portland, Oregon, USA, was used in compiling the database. A retriever program (v. 7.0.011) for the database was provided by Research Software Design for use with the database. The retriever program allows the user to use the database without altering the contents of the database. However, the database can be used, changed, or augmented with a complete version of the program (ordering information can be found in the readme file). The retriever program allows the user to search the database and print from the database. The diskette contains compressed data files.

  • Woodland Caribou Persistence and Extirpation in Relic Populations on Lake Superior
    The Eleventh North American Caribou Workshop, Jasper, Alberta, Canada, 24-27 April, 2006. Woodland caribou persistence and extirpation in relic populations on Lake Superior Arthur T. Bergerud1, W. J. Dalton2, H. Butler1, L. Camps3, & R. Ferguson4 1 1233 Isabella Road, Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada V8K 1T5 ([email protected]). 2 Ministry of Natural Resources, 70 Foster Drive, Suite 400 Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada P6A 6V5 ([email protected]). 3 220 Hillcrest Drive, Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada V8K 1Y4 ([email protected]). 4 5275 Leeward Run Drive, Alpharetta, Georgia, U.S.A. 30005 ([email protected]). Extended abstract: The hypothesis was proposed that woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in North America had declined due to wolf predation and over-hunting rather than from a shortage of winter lichens (Bergerud, 1974). In 1974, two study areas were selected for testing: for the lichen hypothesis, we selected the Slate Islands in Lake Superior (36 km2), a closed canopy forest without terrestrial lichens, wolves, bears, or moose; for the predation hypothesis, we selected the nearby Pukaskwa National Park (PNP) where terrestrial lichens, wolves, bears, and moose were present. Both areas were monitored from 1974 to 2003 (30 years). The living and dead caribou on the Slates were estimated by the ‘King census’ strip transect (mean length 108±9.3 km, extremes 22-190, total 3026 km) and the Lincoln Index (mean tagged 45±3.6, extremes 15-78). The mean annual population on the Slate Islands based on the strip transects was 262±22 animals (extremes 104-606), or 7.3/km2 (29 years) and from the Lincoln Index 303±64 (extremes 181-482), or 8.4/km2 (23 years).

Thirteen caribou ranges have been delineated in this region (Figure 1). Farther south, along the northeast shore of Lake Superior, the Lake Superior Coast Range (LSCR) supports isolated populations of caribou. This represents the most southerly population of boreal caribou in Canada.
