Boundaries identifying similar behavioural ecotypes and sub-populations of Grizzly bears. This dataset contains versions from multiple years. From 2018 on, NatureServe conservation concern ranking categories (e.g., Very Low, Low, Moderate, High, Extreme Concern) supersede the pre-2018 population status categories (e.g., Viable, Threatened, Extirpated) contained in the field STATUS. NatureServe conservation concern ranking categories reflect population size and trend, genetic and demographic isolation, as well as threats to bears and their habitats. The NatureServe conservation concern ranking fields are named CONSERVATION_CONCERN_RANK and CONSERVATION_CONCERN_DESC.

This record contains Grizzly Bear population estimates for British Columbia for multiple years: 2012, 2015 and 2018. The 2012 Grizzly Bear population estimate report for British Columbia report is available here: http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/fw/wildlife/docs/Grizzly_Bear_Pop_Est_Report_Final_2012.pdf. The 2018 Grizzly Bear population estimate report for British Columbia report is available here: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/environment/plants-animals-and-ecosystems/wildlife-wildlife-habitat/grizzly-bears/grizzly_bear_pop_est_report_2018_final.pdf Grizzly Bear population estimates for 2015 & 2018 are provided below in tabular comma separated value (.csv) file format, as well as a zipped (.zip) Esri file geodatabase (.gdb) spatial data file format. There is no spatial difference between the 2015 & 2018 spatial data polygons, as only the population estimate numbers in the spatial data's attribute table were updated (and only if a change in population estimates occurred from 2015 to 2018). 2015 population estimates are based on 2012 numbers, but adjusted to the revised GBPU sub-units. The 2015 & 2018 population estimates in the comma separated value (.csv) tables are provided in two units: 1. Grizzly Bear Population Unit (GBPU) and 2. GBPU sub-unit. The sub-units are composed of Grizzly Bear Population Unit (GBPU), Wildlife Management Unit (WMU), Limited Entry Hunting (LEH) and National Park boundaries, taken at the time of this data's creation. _Note that that these boundaries are not coincident. Slight adjustments have been made to some polygons where needed to align the original linework to create the GBPU sub-units._ _Therefore, do not dissolve the GBPU sub-units to replicate the source data._ Bear density is given in number of bears per 1,000 square kilometers, based on the net polygon area. The net polygon area excludes ice and water features from the Baseline Thematic Mapping dataset (https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/134fdc69-7b0c-4c50-b77c-e8f2553a1d40). Ice and water features can be identified by using this selection criteria: PRESENT_LAND_USE_LABEL IN ('Fresh Water', 'Salt Water', 'Glaciers and Snow').

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.
