For eons, female members of the Porcupine caribou herd have made the 2,800-mile journey from their winter feeding grounds to their summer calving grounds. They once roamed borderless wilderness; now they trek from Canada, where they're protected, to the United States, where they are not. What's more, beneath the calving grounds lay vast reserves of oil. Determined to convey both the enormity of the caribous' migration and the delicacy of their habitat, Karsten Heuer and his wife spent their honeymoon following the herd. For five months, they traveled an uncharted course on foot over mountains, through snow, and across frozen rivers, with only three semi-scheduled food drops for support. As with the caribou, Heuer and his wife faced dwindling fat reserves and stalking by ravenous grizzlies and wolves just awakened from hibernation. Both a rousing adventure story and a sober ecological meditation, Being Caribou vividly conveys this magnificent animal's world.

The George River caribou herd increased from 15,000 animals in 1958 to 700,000 in 1988 - the largest herd in the world at the time. The authors trace the fluctuations in this caribou population back to the 1700s, detail how the herd escaped extinction in the 1950s, and consider current environmental threats to its survival. In an examination of the life history and population biology of the herd, The Return of Caribou to Ungava offers a synthesis of the basic biological traits of the caribou, a new hypothesis about why they migrate, and a comparison to herd populations in North America, Scandinavia, and Russia. The authors conclude that the old maxim, "Nobody knows the way of the caribou," is no longer valid. Based on a study in which the caribou were tracked by satellite across Ungava, they find that caribou are able to navigate, even in unfamiliar habitats, and to return to their calving ground, movement that is central to the caribou's cyclical migration. The Return of Caribou to Ungava also examines whether the herd can adapt to global warming and other changing environmental realities.

Excerpt from The CaribouIn describing the genus Rangifer, European naturalists have until recently held that there was but one species with a circum polar distribution. Lately, however, they have partly yielded to the American view, and admitted the existence of either two or three distinct species. In the former case they identify the old' world reindeer with the Barren Ground Caribou, to which indeed it is closely allied. Judge Caton made a very serious error in identifying the reindeer with our Woodland Caribou.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Torro is the newest member of the Alakota pack of dire wolves and sole heir to their leader, Derinie. Born into a world of turmoil and without a mother he must learn the ways of the pack with its order and rituals to survive the harsh climate of the prehistoric Ice Age. With the pack starving for prey and despite his inexperience at hunting, he sets off with his best friend Elsie in search of the caribou. But will his spunky personality and steadfast determination be enough for him to survive threats from saber toothed tigers, mammoths, and bears? While traversing the frozen tundra Torro must also manage hostile encounters with rival wolf packs plotting for control of the Alakota territory while his fathers leadership is challenged from within. Only Torro knows a secret that threatens the lives of every pack member. How can this brave young wolf protect himself and help the pack to survive through the harshest of winters? Trail of the Caribou chronicles Torros treacherous journey of growth and discovery in a world of peril and promise. This imagined world of wolves has all the complexity of human relationships in a time before human interference; complete with Native American-inspired folklore and rituals in a rapid-paced story of courage and survival.
