  • Cartography
CONT

Mapping caribou movements and distributions ... Recommendation: Better map notations are needed. As an alternative to individual mapping, caribou movements and distributions could be documented on an on-going basis (vs. once or twice a year). This task could, potentially, be undertaken by local RRC staff and hunters visiting their offices. Caribou monitoring could be recorded on a base map.
