Weaver J. 2001. The Transboundary Flathead: A Critical Landscape for Carnivores in the Rocky Mountains. WCS Working Papers No. 18. 2001. Wildlife Conservation Society Canada
This report assesses the importance of the transboundary Flathead area for carnivore conservation. For each of five carnivore species — wolf, lynx, marten, wolverine, and grizzly bear — available information is compiled and synthesized about its: (1)ecological resilience, (2) key food resources and habitats, and (3) distribution, movements, and relative abundance. Similar information for three key prey species — moose, elk, and white-tailed deer is also presented.
