Actions that would increase recreation in mountain caribou
recovery areas. Such activities could include, but are not limited to,
recreational developments that facilitate winter access into mountain
caribou habitat units, or management activities that increase
recreational activities within mountain caribou habitat throughout the
year, such as snowmobiling, OHV use, and backcountry skiing. These
activities have the potential to displace caribou from suitable habitat
or increase their susceptibility to predation. Displacement of caribou
may result in additional energy expenditure by caribou when they vacate
an area to avoid disturbance, and an effective loss of habitat
availability temporarily and potentially in the long-term, where
caribou abandon areas affected by chronic disturbance.
