EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print, titled “Reindeer (Rangifer Tarandus), ” takes us on a journey through time. Created in the style of a 19th-century engraving, it beautifully captures the essence of these majestic creatures. The artist, Nastasic, skillfully combines elements of art and craft to bring this illustration to life. The image showcases an adult reindeer against a crisp white background, allowing every intricate detail to shine through. Its retro-styled appearance adds an air of nostalgia and charm. As we observe the cut-out figure gracefully standing in a horizontal position, we are reminded of the aging process that nature bestows upon all living beings. This piece not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into zoology and wildlife. It transports us back to a time when printed images were treasured in books and newspapers as valuable sources of knowledge. As we admire this antique printout with its pencil-drawn lines meticulously engraved onto paper, we can’t help but appreciate the historical significance it holds. The classical style employed by Nastasic evokes feelings of admiration for both artistry and nature itself. Whether displayed in your home or office space, this enchanting portrayal will surely captivate any viewer’s attention while adding a touch of elegance to your surroundings.

Did You Know?
- In the Inupiaq language spoken by Northern Alaska’s Inupiat people, the word for caribou is commonly spelled ‘tutu.’
Alaska hunters shoot about 22,000 caribou each year for food. A few thousand other hunters, primarily from the lower 48 states, Europe, and Mexico, travel to Alaska to experience caribou hunting each fall. These hunters contribute significantly to the economy of the state, particularly in rural areas. Meat from caribou taken by these nonresident hunters is also required to be used for food. Alaska’s great caribou herds have also become increasingly treasured as a natural wonder of state, national, and international importance.
Research
In the 1970s people were concerned about the effect of the trans-Alaska oil pipeline, expanding oil development, and increased disturbance from use of aircraft and snowmobiles on caribou. Although there was some displacement of caribou calving in the Prudhoe Bay oilfield, in general, caribou have not been adversely affected by human activities in Alaska. Pipelines and most other developments are built to allow for caribou movements, and caribou have shown us that they can adapt to the presence of people and machines. As human activities expand in Alaska, the great challenge for caribou management is for man to consider the needs of our caribou herds and ensure that they remain a visible, healthy part of our landscape.

Counting Caribou
This video summarizes the method used by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to estimate the population size of various caribou herds in Alaska. A ten-minute bird’s eye view of a wildlife phenomenon few people get to see.
Caribou Tracks
Caribou have the widest and roundest hooves of all deer species. Their large, concave hoofs are spread widely to support the animal in snow and soft tundra and function as paddles when caribou swim across lakes and rivers during migration.
Caribou scat differs in size and shape depending on the amount of moisture obtained in vegetation. During the winter, caribou eat lichens, sedges and small shrubs with high fiber contents that appears in small, concave pellets. In the summer, scat is seen as soft clumps of mass resulting from a diet of lush, wet vegetation.
