Muskox appear to be moving into areas previously burned by wildfires in the NWT, a northern researcher says, with possible consequences for other species.

presented my masters research in yellowknife last night, my hometown! a very fun evening with lots of interest around muskox 😊

yippee! 🐂

My favourite wildflower, Prickly Saxifrage. Pic 1 shows the normal 5-petal form of this crazy-beautiful little flower. The other pic shows a rare (I’ve only seen one) 20-petal form. Pics from a few years ago at Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. #wildflower #flower #botany

Wonderful to have @nluymes.bsky.social represent the #WILDlab and muskox research in NWT at the Cold Regions Research Conference this week! We also had @christinedunbar.bsky.social give a ✨FANTASTIC✨ 3 minute thesis on #muskox too. Thanks for hosting @crrc-wlu.bsky.social

Fantastic start to the session with Caroline Duncan discussing water quality from source to tap in Cambridge Bay, Mathew Mervyn on beaver impacts on tundra streams, and Nick Luymes examined muskox habitat selection below treeline! 💧🦫🐂 #ColdRegionsResearch #CRRC2025

Thrilled to have talked about my masters research on “Habitat Drivers in an Expanding Muskox (Yutthéjëré; Ovibos moschatus) Range” today at the 2025 Cold Regions Conference in Waterloo, Ontario! Loved listening to all the great research projects happening in the NWT ❄️

New research! Authors examine camera trapping trends in Australia, finding strong taxonomic, geographic, and analytical biases, but also new ways to meet big conservation objectives. Great stuff! Glad to play a very small part. Congrats Tom and WildObs! ⚡️ www.researchgate.net/publication/...
