Selection of summer feeding sites and food resources by female migratory caribou (Rangifer tarandus) determined using camera collars
Female migratory caribou (Rangifer tarandus) depend on the availability of summer habitat resources to meet the needs associated with lactation and the accumulation of fat reserves to survive when resources are less abundant. Because of the large scales at which habitat and resource data are usually...
