In Vitro Digestibilities of Plants Utilized by Barren-Ground Caribou
Rumen fluids of barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) were used with standard in vitro procedures in March 1981 to investigate the relative digestibilities of forages collected on caribou winter ranges in the southern Northwest Territories. In vitro dry matter disappearance (IVDMD) of the three most abundant arboreal lichens, when fermented in test tubes for 60 h, averaged 67% compared with 43% for the seven most common terricol…
Digestibility of Plants in Ruminal Fluids of Barren-Ground Caribou
The comparative digestibilities of plants and their rates of digestion in vitro were assessed by fermentation with ruminal fluids obtained from barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) shot on their winter range in the southern Northwest Territories. There was a near-linear increase in the in vitro, dry-matter disappearance (IVDMD) with fermentation time (30-120 h) for all eight lichen species that we tested. In contrast, IVDMD was…
In Vitro Digestibilities of Plants in Rumen Fluids of Peary Caribou
In vitro fermentation with expressed rumen fluids was used to evaluate the apparent comparative digestibilities of plants ingested by Peary caribou (Rangifer tarandus pearyi) in arctic Canada. The apparent digestibilities of vascular plant components collected in summer and fermented for 60 hours with "summer" rumen inoculum generally were in the range 50-80%, digestibilities of lichens ranged from 18-85%, and those of mosses from 11-35%. In simi…
