Carina Gjerrum’s Thesis published in The Auk 121(2):463-472. 2004 Abstract I used a supplemental feeding experiment to determine whether adult Tufted Puffins (Fratercula cirrhata) would decrease provisioning effort in response to a reduction in nestling nutritional requirements, and to investigate the relationship between parental provisioning effort and timing of fledging. As predicted, parents of the
Of the 37,000 ha of crown grassland in the Okanagan region, 83.3% overall are under a grazing tenure, mostly grazing licenses. However, when considering just the Northern and Southern Okanagan Basins, 71.5% and 72.3% are under range tenures, respectively (Table 7). Crown grasslands with no range tenure in these basins can generally be found in
