  • Organochlorine Contaminants in the Country Food Diet of the Belcher Island Inuit, Northwest Territories, Canada
    ARCTIC VOL. 46, NO. 1 (MARCH 1993) P. 42-48 0.rganochlorine Contaminants in the Country Food Diet of the Belcher Island Inuit, Northwest Territories, Canada MARJORIE CAMERON1s2 and I. MICHAEL WEIS1*3 (Received 19 August 1991; accepted in revised form 17 September 1992) ABSTRACT. An initial assessment ofthe country food diet at the Belcher Islands’ community of Sanikiluaq, NorthwestTerritories, was made by interviewing 16 families during May - July 1989. Estimates of consumptionper day were established over a two-week periodfor 10 of these families. This information was utilized along with previously published harvest datafor the community to estimate country food consumption ingramdday and kg/year. Beluga (Delphinapterusleucus), ringed seal (Phocu hispida), arctic cham (Sulvelinus alpinus), common eider (Somatenu mollissima) and Canada goose(Bruntu canudemis) were found to be important components in thediet during this period. Results of analysisfor organochlorine contaminants revealthat ringed seal fat and beluga muktuk (skin and layer) fat samples havethe highest concentrationof DDE and total PCBs among the country food species. Average DDE and total PCB valueswere 1504.6 pglkg and 1283.4 pgkg respectively in ringedseal fat and 184.3 pgkg and 144.7 pglkg respectively in beluga muktuk. Comparison of contaminants in seal fat indicates concentrations approximately two times higher in samples from the Belcher Islandsthan from sites in the Canadian WesternArctic, but lower than concentrations reported from various European sites. The daily consumption estimates ingramdday were used along withorganic contaminant analysisdata to calculate the estimated intakelevels of 0.22 pg/kg body weight/day of total DDT and 0.15 pg/kg body weighthay of total PCBs during the study period.

Although caribou populations observe natural cycles of abundance and scarcity, several caribou herds across the Circumpolar North have experienced dramatic declines in recent decades due to a range of interrelated factors. Broadly, the objectives of this study are to examine food and nutrition security in relation to wildlife population and management status across Inuit Nunangat (the Inuit homeland, consisting of four regions across the Canadian Arctic). Specifically, we: (1) characterize the contribution of caribou to Inuit nutrition across northern Canada and (2) evaluate the population and management status of caribou herds/populations harvested by Inuit. Dietary data were derived from the 2007–2008 Inuit Health Survey, which included dietary information for Inuit adults (n = 2097) residing in thirty-six communities, spanning three regions (the Inuvialuit Settlement Region, Nunavut, and Nunatsiavut) of the Canadian North. Published information regarding the range, abundance, status, and management status of caribou herds/ populations was collected through document analysis and was validated through consultation with northern wildlife experts (territorial governments, co-management, and/or Inuit organizations).

  • Birds of Mansel Island, Northern Hudson Bay Anthony J
    The Canadian Field-Naturalist Birds of Mansel Island, northern Hudson Bay Anthony J. Gaston Science and Technology Branch, Environment and Climate Change Canada, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0H3 Canada; email: [email protected] Gaston, A.J. 2019. Birds of Mansel Island, northern Hudson Bay. Canadian Field-Naturalist 133(1): 20–24. https://doi.org/ 10.22621/cfn.v133i1.2153 Abstract A recent review of bird distributions in Nunavut demonstrated that Mansel Island, in northeastern Hudson Bay, is one of the least known areas in the territory. Here, current information on the birds of Mansel Island is summarized. A list published in 1932 included 24 species. Subsequent visits by ornithologists since 1980 have added a further 17 species to the island’s avifauna. The list includes 17 species for which breeding has been confirmed and 10 for which breeding is considered prob- able. The island seems to support particularly large populations of King Eiders (Somateria spectabilis) and Tundra Swans (Cygnus columbianus) and the most southerly breeding population of Sabine’s Gull (Xema sabini) and Red Knot (Calidiris canuta; probably).
