BREAKOUT OBJECTIVES What is proving USEFUL? How can we make it BETTER? Can we make it more ACCESSIBLE? Are there similar tools or resources out there?

WEB BASED PROTOCOLS RESOURCES nce.com/display/public/home Level 1 Protocols (Download) Level 2 Protocols (Download FIELD PROTOCOLS BODY CONDITION ASSESSMENT ◦This manual describes monitoring at the scale of the individual caribou and is focused on health and physical condition. ◦The actual field protocols are presented at two levels. ◦Level 1 methods that can be performed by hunters after minimal training. ◦Level 2 protocols for intensive monitoring (require trained staff to collect and document the health and condition of individual caribou.)

BREAKOUT OBJECTIVES What is proving USEFUL? How can we make it BETTER? Can we make it more ACCESSIBLE? Are there similar tools or resources out there?

SUPPORT TOOLS

SOME EXAMPLES FOLLOW APPLICATIONS FROM PREDICTION OF WHOLE BODY FAT AND PROTEIN RESERVES IN GREENLAND COLLECTION IN MARCH (Christine Cuyler) DATA PRESENTED AT NACW IN WINNIPEG 2010

WARBLE AND NASAL BOT LARVAE DISTRIBUTION BY REPRODUCTIVE CLASS

FAT RESERVES IN INDICES 1 BONE ~8 BONES ~3.2% of BF

Probability of visually reporting fat indices by reproductive class 1) concordance between indices is poor 2) backfat (rump) may reflect fat reserves entering winter 3) omental (gut) fat is used after rump 4) kidney fat appears to be conserved PROBABILITY

FAT DISTRIBUTION BY REPRODUCTIVE CLASS 1) pregnant animals had highest amount of fat (~6 kg) representing ~8 %BWt. 2) non-pregnant animals had 4 kg fat, representing 6.5 %BWt. 3) short yearlings at 1 kg fat represented 5.5 %BWt.
