Generic preference and in-vivo digestibility of alectorioid arboreal lichens by woodland caribou

All caribou exhibited a strong preference (92%) for lichen in the multi-species Bryoria complex (range=87-99%).Preference for Bryoria may be a function of higher protein content, lower tensile strength, or differences in concentrations of secondary plant constituents.
