Abstract
Extralimital reports
of cougars (Puma concolor) at the northern limits of their range are
rare. We documented at least 21 individual occurrences of cougars from the
Northwest Territories and the Wood Buffalo National Park area between the
years 1983 and 2000. Our evidence suggests at a minimum, transient cougars
are regular visitors to northern Alberta and the Northwest Territories. |
