A 2004 University of Alberta study found that “the caribou population would be seven times larger without development in its habitat.” In addition to woodland caribou, many species, including cougar, lynx, grey wolf, and grizzly bear are threatened by logging in this region.
The Alberta government awarded West Fraser a forest management area for the period of June 15, 1988 to June 14, 2008, consisting of 999,559 hectares of publicly owned land (more than 2.4 million acres).
In June 2005, the Alberta government decided to ignore the recommendation of a committee of industry, government, scientific and environmental representatives—a committee assembled by the government itself--calling for an end to new logging in critical caribou habitat.
