    Chapter 13 The Muskrats of North America Other Than Ondatra zibethicus zibethicus THE FIFTEEN RECOGNIZED FORMS of muskrats having North American ranges outside of the range of 0. z. zibethicus show many differences as to population status, habitats, and geographical distribution. Of these other muskrats, 0. z. cinnamominus - the subspecies with which, next to zibethicus, I have had the most experience - can be notable for its low densities over tremendous areas of the arid and semiarid Great Plains; it may hardly be represented at all for stretches of hundreds of miles, yet seldom does it fail nominally to hold essentially its regular range, and it often reaches typical muskrat abundance m suitable marsh or stream habitats. "\\!estward from the range of cinnamominus extend the ranges of the evidently closely related mergens, occipitalis, and osoyoosensis. The one of these having the smallest range, occipitalis, &hows some behavior differences, whereas the widely distributed osoyoosensis is probably as versatile with respect to habitats and climate as any musk­ rat subspecies, including zibethicus. It is true that zibethicus in northern Ontario and osoyoosensis at high altitudes in western United States illustrate muskrat adaptability to long cold winters and marginal habitats as well as do any of what may be called the true northern muskrats - obscurus, aquilonius, a/bus, zalophus, and spatulatus. Nevertheless, much may still be learned from this latter group about what constitutes habitability of northern muskrat range and what muskrats can there endure in the way of edge-of-range phenomena. The subspecies macrodon, rivalicius, ripensis, bernardi, goldmani, and pallidus are all natives of warm climates and all have restricted geographic ranges.

Dedication For Tawny Abstract The Queen Maud block is divided into two crustal belts. The western Perry River belt is dominated by Mesoarchean to Neoarchean granitic gneisses and supracrustal rocks; it was incorporated into the Rae domain by at least 2.46 Ga. The eastern Paalliq belt is dominated by the 2.52-2.45 Ga Queen Maud granitoids and the 2.45-2.39 Ga Sherman supracrustal sequence, both of which were formed on Neoarchean crust of the Rae domain. Slave-Churchill collision and convergence occurred ca. 2.43-2.35 Ga resulting in granulite-facies metamorphism, regional scale N-S trending strike-slip shearing, and minor crustal melting in the Queen Maud block.

Box 1379 Iqaluit, NU X0A 0H0 Email: [email protected] Pertaining to NWMB’s Regular Meeting No. RM 002-2018: Final Draft Management Plan for the Ahiak Migratory Bird Sanctuary for Consideration by the NWMB for Approval The Ahiak (Queen Maud Gulf) Migratory Bird Sanctuary, located between Umingmaktok, Cambridge Bay and Gjoa Haven in the Kitikmeot region of Nunavut, was created in 1961. Through the Nunavut Agreement, an Inuit Impact and Benefit Agreement for National Wildlife Areas and Migratory Bird Sanctuaries in the Nunavut Settlement Area (IIBA) was signed by Nunavut Tunngavik Inc., the three Regional Inuit Associations (Kitikmeot Inuit Association, Kivalliq Inuit Association and Qikiqtani Inuit Association) and the federal Minister of the Environment, Environment and Climate Change Canada (signed first in 2006 and renegotiated in 2016). This IIBA created co-management committees for these protected areas in Nunavut (IIBA Article 3). The Ahiak Migratory Bird Sanctuary is co-managed by Inuit (from Umingmaktok, Cambridge Bay and Gjoa Haven) and the Canadian Wildlife Service (a part of Environment and Climate Change Canada) through the Ahiak Area Co-Management Committee. Part of the mandate of the Ahiak Area Co-Management Committee is to develop a Management Plan for the Ahiak Migratory Bird Sanctuary (IIBA s. 3.2.3(b) and s. 3.5). The Ahiak Area Co- Management Committee completed a draft Management Plan and consulted with the associated communities and other interested parties on the draft (IIBA s. 3.5). As per the IIBA, 3.6.1 The ACMCs [Area Co-Management Committees] shall recommend completed Management Plans to the NWMB [Nunavut Wildlife Management Board] for approval in accordance with sections 5.2.34(c) and 5.3.16 of the NLCA [Nunavut Agreement].
