Polar Bear Denning Area at Gateshead Island, Northwest Territories
A survey during 1977 found that the Gateshead Island area, Northwest Territories, had 9 confirmed and 10 suspected polar bear dens. The importance of the area for polar bear reproduction was confirmed during a survey in 1982 when 15 dens were found, 10 of which were identified as maternity dens. The area should be protected from human intrusion.Key words: polar bears (Ursus maritimus), denning, reproduction, Gateshead Island, Northwest Territorie…
Movement of Four Satellite-Monitored Polar Bears in Lancaster Sound, Northwest Territories
Four female polar bears, fitted with satellite-monitored transmitters at Lancaster Sound, N.W.T. during May 1979, were tracked to determine seasonal distribution, movements relative to ice conditions, and home range. Most locations (68.7%, n = 46) of satellite-tracked bears were on landfast ice, 13.4% (n = 9) on old pack ice, 13.4% (n = 9) on land, 3.0% (n = 2) on bergy water, and 1.5% (n = 1) on young pack ice. These observations support the con…
Distribution, Movement and Abundance of Polar Bears in Lancaster Sound, Northwest Territories
Mark-recapture studies show that polar bears are distributed at varying densities throughout Lancaster Sound during winter and spring. Major concentrations occur along the north and south coasts and the transverse floe edge at the mouth of the sound. As the ice melts, some bears move west whereas others move to nearby land areas. There is some evidence that as the ice forms, polar bears return from their summer locations to eastern Lancaster Soun…
Summer Snow Dens Used by Polar Bears in the Canadian High Arctic
This paper describes the use of snow dens by polar bears during two summers on northern Baffin and Bylot Islands. More dens were found during 1976 than 1975, probably because of heavier snow during 1976. Dens were of three types, shallow surface pits, shallow dens, and deep burrows
