The management of elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti) on
Vancouver Island depends upon the protection and provision of
important elk habitats through integrated forest management.
Thus, knowledge aboute lk habitat needs and the impacotfs
intensive forest management practiceosn these needs is basic
for effective integration of both resources. The present
study was initiated in 1980 to provide this knowledge. The
project is a part of the Integrated Wildlife-Intensive
Forestry Research (IWIFR) Program, a five-year co-operative
effort between the Ministry of Environment and the Ministry
of Forests
The general objective of the elk research project is to
collect information on elk habitat use in immature forests,
and to use this information in formulating management
recommendations. Specific objectives are to examine the
effects of silvicultural activities on elk:
i) seasonal habitat use;
ii) food habits;
iii) migratory habits;
iv) animal condition; and
v) population status.
