This report describes the results of a late-winter population survey of the Finlayson caribou herd, a population of woodland caribou found east of Ross River in the southeast Yukon.
A two-phase population survey was done in late winter 2017. The purpose of the survey was to estimate abundance, distribution, calf recruitment (survival) rates, and adult sex ratios.
The Government of Yukon acknowledges that Indigenous Peoples have traditional territories throughout the Yukon and celebrates their role as stewards of the lands and waters and their ongoing connection to this place.
