Over half of the world's mountain goats (Oreamnos americanus) are found in British Columbia, and the province is considered the geographic heart of North American goat range (Vogel et al. 1995). Thus, provincial responsibility for the conservation of this species is high. Mountain goats are widespread in the Kootenay Region (Region 4) of southeastern BC (Shackleton 1999), with roughly 12-13% of the provincial total (Hatter 2005b).

This report has the following objectives:
1. Critically review all population data and summarize historic and current population size, population density, and population trajectory information, drawing on all available sources of information. Focus on data from the Kootenay Region but if nearby areas are relevant to our regional understanding then present these too.
2. Summarize information on vital rates such as reproduction and mortality and present these measures across time;
3. Summarize harvest rate data comparing harvest numbers and population estimates; and
4. Summarize data for the entire region, or for ecological units, as appropriate.
