Program Title: Terra Informa 8-28: Caribou Special
Description: Declining caribou numbers have sparked concerns over the long term viability of herds, and fear that several may even be on the brink of collapse. With many northern people relying on caribou as a major part of their diets, it's a problem that has governments worried. But is the decline as serious as it's made out to be? Today we talk to biologists, native hunters, a sociologist, and an economist about the state of Canada's iconic caribou.
