  • Separation Anxiety for Woodland Caribou

    The largest of the caribou subspecies, the woodland caribou is widely distributed throughout the boreal forest, from the island of Newfoundland to British Columbia. Despite its vast range, the boreal population of woodland caribou is listed as threatened by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) and endangered in British Columbia. One of the main reasons numbers are dropping is that fewer calves are surviving their first year of life. The main cause is predation. More calves are being preyed on by wolves and black bears than ever before.
