2024年6月29日 · Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) undergo exceptionally large, annual synchronized migrations of thousands of kilometers, triggered by their shared environmental stimuli. The proximate triggers of those migrations remain mysterious, though snow characteristics play an important role due to their influence on the mechanics of locomotion.

2021年9月22日 · During winter, daily decision-making within the winter range is driven largely by snow depth. This integrative approach of coupling snow and wildlife observations with snow-evolution and caribou-movement modeling to quantify the multi-facetted effects of snow on wildlife ecology is applicable to caribou and reindeer herds throughout the Arctic.

2024年11月13日 · We assessed the winter behavioral adaptations of Caribou (Rangifer tarandus), a large ungulate inhabiting Arctic and sub-Arctic regions known for seasonal resource scarcity. Movement rates of Caribou are the lowest of the year during winter, revealing 1 mechanism individuals use to reduce energy expenditures.
