Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is the result of the author's detailed study of the various caribou species of North America. This detailed analysis of size, color, and antler development has led the author to challenge the accepted taxonomy of the time and provide a new classification of the various species. The text also explores how the various species have changed over time based on analysis of fossil records from Europe. It highlights the importance of distinguishing between the two distinct genetic groups of caribou, the Woodland Caribou and the Barren Ground Caribou, and explains that these groups have been separated for millennia. Further, it suggests that within these genetic groupings that there may be additional scientifically distinct species that have yet to be fully described.
