We partnered with @cangeo.bsky.social and their Right of Passage project to highlight 3 migratory landscapes across Canada. Check out the mapped migration corridors of pronghorn, elk & caribou in this story on what animals can tell us about how to keep landscapes connected! tinyurl.com/54e96nrj

Canada’s Wild Ungulate Migrations

Spotlight on three key wildlife corridors and the obstacles faced by the elk and mule deer, pronghorn and caribou that traverse them

"Keeping [migration] paths intact in general is important to give the animals options to respond. As we chip away at that behavior, we’re chipping away at the ability to have large numbers of ungulates on the landscape.” - @claytontlamb.bsky.social therevelator.org/deer-caribou...

Incredible Journeys: How Hoofing It Helps Deer and Caribou • The Revelator

Migration increases the survival of ungulates like mule deer and caribou, but changing landscapes are hampering their movements — and their future.

Across Sweden, moose traverse mountains, forests and marshes during their seasonal migrations. The most impressive movements may be those that swim between islands in the Baltic Sea! Check out the new maps in the Atlas to learn more about these swimming moose. @cms.int

The Atlas of Ungulate Migration was recently announced Best in Show at the 53rd Annual CaGIS Map Design Competition! Thanks to our partners at the U of Oregon's InfoGraphicsLab for the making the Atlas both beautiful and scientifically robust! cartogis.org/awards/map-c...

"Moose in Sweden have migrated the same way for thousands of years... Whether it is wildebeest in the Serengeti or moose in Sweden, we need to raise awareness so that natural migratory behavior is preserved," - Göran Ericsson, lead moose researcher, SLU. tinyurl.com/btythsay

The Great Moose Migration is underway in Sweden and two new maps by @migratinghooves.bsky.social are live on our Atlas of Ungulate Migration View maps: www.cms.int/gium/migrati... Download fact sheets: www.cms.int/publication/... Why it's a hit on Swedish TV: www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

The Great Moose Migration in Sweden is underway, with moose ascending mountains, crossing roads and swimming rivers (and even the Baltic Sea!) as they head towards their summer ranges. We are mapping 5 migrations across the country - the first two are live today! @cms.int tinyurl.com/m2hx6tu3

‘When we saw one there were high-fives and hugging’: the Swedish TV show (hopefully) bringing moose to your sofa

A surprise beneficiary of lockdown, The Great Moose Migration has become a ‘slow TV’ sensation, keeping audiences worldwide glued to the beasts’ epic trek – even if they’re rarely spotted on screen

New story by @wwfcanada.org highlighting our maps of the Bathurst caribou migration and the conservation opportunities in this quickly developing landscape: wwf.ca/stories/new-maps-reveal-striking-decline-of-an-arctic-caribou-migration-range/

New maps reveal dramatic decline of an Arctic caribou migration range - WWF.CA

The Bathurst caribou population has declined from 400,000 in the 1980s to less than 4,000 in 2025, and their migratory range has also contracted as a result.

#CMSCOP15 has officially opened in Campo Grande, Brazil. At a time when 49% of CMS-listed species are declining and nearly one in four are globally threatened with extinction, the world has come together to drive action for migratory species. 🦉🦈🐆 Discover more: www.cms.int/news/worlds-...

New report on the plight of migratory species just released by @unepwcmc.bsky.social and @cms.int, finding that 47% of key biodiversity areas for migratory species are not protected. GIUM provided expertise and maps for the report's ungulate section: tinyurl.com/3ysvc5j9

Plight of migratory species is worsening, new report finds ahead of global wildlife meeting - UNEP-WCMC

Half of all migratory species that are recognised as needing protection now have declining populations

Saiga are navigating a landscape that is becoming increasingly fragmented by linear barriers. With a new road planned to run across the northern part of the saiga's migratory range in central Kazakhstan, researchers are working to understand how the animals will respond. tinyurl.com/mtn8ztwf

The saiga of western Kazakhstan have grown to reach the highest numbers ever recorded in the Ural region. Managers are now working toward coexistence between the saiga and local livestock owners and to maintain their extensive migratory range. Read more in the Atlas here: www.cms.int/gium/migrati...

"The future of saiga is still being shaped." Maps can aid planners when determining where to build new infrastructure or identify zones with a greater risk of conflict between saiga and agricultural operations. Read more: tinyurl.com/mtn8ztwf @acbk.bsky.social @cms.int

New migration map today! Elk in the Trench Valley of BC make impressive migrations from their winter valleys to high elevation summer ranges. This landscape hosts migratory elk, moose, mule deer & bighorn sheep often using the same corridors. @claytontlamb.bsky.social www.cms.int/gium/migrati...

Pronghorns are stymied by prairie fences. Meet the volunteers trying to help them run free

Pronghorns used to race across the prairies — until people put up fences. Now, a group of volunteers is working to reconnect this divided landscape.

New maps and fact sheets published in the Atlas of Ungulate Migration today! Learn about the conservation successes and challenges facing Poland’s migratory moose and European bison. tinyurl.com/2r4rw7hm

Sneak peek: Three migration maps will be published in the Atlas of Ungulate Migration next week! In Poland's forests, migratory populations of moose and European bison are testaments to the country's ability to safeguard the phenomenon of large mammal migration. #conservation 📸 Rafal Kowalczyk

We are excited to announce the two newest maps in the Atlas of Ungulate Migration: the white-eared kob and tiang migrations in South Sudan and Ethiopia! These maps will serve as tools in balancing the needs of both people and wildlife in this incredible region. shorturl.at/fFc4M
