"With a connection to the land, our spirit is strong" Tlicho traditional knowledge of climate change and impacts for caribou hunting: implication for traditional knowledge research
My research was to document the Elders knowledge of climate change and the impacts on caribou hunting. The Elders explained starting in the 1960-70s the weather has become warmer and drier leading to a change in hunting locations and modified hunting times. Changes to wind patterns as well as change...
