Clear Creek Caribou, a northern mountain herd, were the focal species for this project. Reconnyx HyperFire 2 Trail Cameras were strategically deployed in caribou habitat across a gradient of disturbance. CH cameras were accessed by helicopter and CR cameras were accessed by road. All cameras were placed on game trails approximately 1.7m above the ground, and approximately 2-4m away from (but facing) the trail . O’Gorman’s Long Distance Call Lure was applied annually to holes drilled into a scent tree, or where necessary into ground vegetation or rocks, located 4-7m from the camera within the field of view. Cameras were programmed to take a single time-lapse photo daily at noon to monitor environmental changes and verify functionality. Upon heat or motion activation, cameras captured a burst of five consecutive photos with no delay between activations. Cameras were moved if >5 independent photos of humans were captured, no target species were detected, or if there was an active dwelling or camp within 1km.

This is a collaborative project with the First Nation of Na-Cho Nyäk Dun (FNNND) and Government of Yukon Department of Environment, with support from Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in. It was undertaken with the financial support of the Department of Environment, the Government of Canada through the federal Department of Environment and Climate Change (Grant Number: GCXE22C217​ to FNNND) and through the Canada-Yukon Nature Agreement.
