Good day, I feel that woodland Caribou should removed from the list. I’m flying in northern Ontario and often see vast herds in the far north in the Big Trout Lake area. The MNR is managing the forestry cutting for Caribou habitat thereby destroying moose habitat. The province makes a lot of money from the moose harvest and not a dime from Caribou. More emphasis should be placed on local knowledge from the locals in the bush, hunters trappers and bush workers. There’s almost as many Caribou as there are Moose.
A good example of this is the increase of wolverines in Northwest Ontario, local trappers never caught them, now many trappersare catching them. The same holds true for moose, deer and bear populations, the people working in the bush have valuable knowledge that is basically ignored by the Biologists.
