    1.1 Rocky Mountain Elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) SPECIES NAME: Rocky mountain elk SCIENTIFIC NAME: Cervus elaphus nelsoni SPECIES CODES: M-CEEL STATUS: Not at risk (MELP, 1997; COSEWIC, 1998) DISTRIBUTION Provincial Range Rocky Mountain elk primarily occur in the Kootenays, the lower Peace River area and the Muskwa-Prophet River drainages on the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains. Although Rocky Mountain elk were historically abundant and widely distributed in the Cariboo-Chilcotin and Thompson-Nicola areas, elk declined for unknown reasons and today only small, widely scattered herds remain in these areas.

The summer population is larger due to seasonal migrations from the Muskwa/Prophet river drainages and other adjacent areas (Wood, pers. comm.). Hatler (1990) and Wildlife Branch (1990b) found 22 and 19 elk respectively wintering in the upper Akie River drainage. A small population of elk reside along the Ingenika River. In 1996, 50 elk were transplanted into this area to supplement the original population of 20 to 30. The population is currently estimated at 40 to 50 individuals (Wood, pers.

WILLIAMS, Jr., and JANE G. FERRIGNO U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROFESSIONAL PAPER 1386–J–1 The Rocky Mountains of Canada include four distinct ranges from the U.S. border to northern British Columbia: Border, Continental, Hart, and Muskwa Ranges. They cover about 170,000 km2, are about 150 km wide, and have an estimated glacierized area of 38,613 km2. Mount Robson, at 3,954 m, is the highest peak. Glaciers range in size from ice fields, with major outlet glaciers, to glacierets. Small mountain-type glaciers in cirques, niches, and ice aprons are scattered throughout the ranges.

To address these knowledge gaps, a 5- year regional population inventory was initiated in 2013. As part of this multi-year project, an aerial survey of mountain goats was conducted July 18th–22nd, 2017 (Year 4 of 5) in Wildlife Management Units 7-50, 7-51, and 7-54 in the Northern Rockies (Muskwa- Tuchodi area) of the Peace Region, British Columbia. During the survey a total of 821 mountain goats were observed, 623 were adults (males and females combined) and 198 were kids (young-of-the-year). A sightability correction factor of 1.54 (assumes 65% of mountain goats were observed) was applied to the total number of mountain goats counted, resulting in a population estimate of 1,264 individuals within the study area. The information obtained from this aerial survey will be used to delineate population management units and better inform management decisions for mountain goats, including sustainable harvest levels. 2 Muskwa-Tuchodi Mountain Goat Inventory – 2017 Table of Contents Executive Summary .........................................................................................................

  • Tuchodi Prescribed Burns Presentation
    Tuchodi Prescribed Burns for Wildlife Habitat Supplemental Information 2020 A.D. Woods October 2020 Prepared for the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development, Northeast Region EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Northeastern British Columbia (BC) has a long history of the use of prescribed fire for wildlife habitat improvement and enhancement, which has primarily been conducted by the Province of BC and, historically, First Nations. The Tuchodi River valley, located in the Northern Rocky Mountains Provincial Park, is renowned for the diversity and abundance of wildlife within it, which has been shaped and maintained through the implementation of prescribed burns for the past 50 years. Persistence of these wildlife values is important for traditional use by First Nations, biodiversity, and recreational opportunities. The purpose of the multi-year Tuchodi prescribed burn program is to restore early seral ecosystems to support healthy wildlife populations dependent upon these habitats. Early and mid-seral habitats, including natural grasslands and grassland-shrub complexes, will be treated with prescribed fire to increase the quantity and quality of forage, increase the traverse-ability of sites by removing blow down, and decrease vertical structure to meet the seasonal foraging requirements of each species. Effectiveness of the prescribed burns will be assessed by measuring and comparing vegetative response and changes in wildlife use before and after the prescribed fire treatment. Funding for this project was provided by the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation and the North Peace Rod & Gun Club. Suggested Citation: Woods, A.D. 2020.
