This contribution supports furthering knowledge of caribou genomics to inform woodland caribou recovery and the conservation breeding initiative in Jasper National Park. The project will use new techniques and additional biological samples to build on previous caribou genetics work to ensure that genetic diversity and inbreeding are key considerations in the steps taken to augment caribou through conservation breeding.
