Mountain caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou, mountain/arboreal-lichen feeding ecotype) are currently Blue-listed in British Columbia. British Columbia currently has an estimated 2,450 mountain caribou, representing about 98% of the world population, distributed in 13 spatially disjunct subpopulations, which comprise a single metapopulation. Habitat fragmentation, reduction in winter food supply, human access and disturbance (including hunting and poaching), and predation have probably contributed to past declines in distribution and abundance. To meet national and international responsibilities for the long-term viability of mountain caribou, a provincial Mountain Caribou Conservation Strategy (MCCS) is being developed. The proposed vision is to “maintain caribou and their habitat in perpetuity throughout British Columbia’s mountain caribou range” and the proposed goals are to: (1) maintain a population of >2,500 mountain caribou, distributed throughout their current range in British Columbia...
