Caribou, Moose and Beaver: These animals are important to the Eeyou and are present within the study area. Traditional

knowledge provided by community members helped establish an overview of areas considered important for these species near the capacity upgrades.

To provide context, an analysis of numerous previous study reports (from the 1970s to present) was carried out to describe how environmental and wildlife conditions have changed over time in relation to hydrology and other natural and human influences, such as wildfires and recreational hunting. Combined with information shared by Cree land users, this work offers an overall picture of how caribou, moose and beaver use the territory between the La Grande estuary and La Grande 4 reservoir.
