Published purpose

The Porcupine Caribou Management Board is leading the final phase of creating a Conservation Plan for the Porcupine Caribou herd, aiming to ensure its long-term survival and support the communities that depend on it. The plan will integrate Indigenous and scientific knowledge, with input from eight Yukon and NWT communities (Old Crow, Dawson, Mayo, Aklavik, Fort McPherson, Tsiigehtchic, Inuvik, and Tuktoyaktuk), to reflect shared priorities and experiences. This collaborative effort addresses growing environmental and development pressures, promoting stewardship and Indigenous leadership in protecting the herd and its habitat.
