Documents approved logging of more than 54,000 hectares of old-growth forest caribou habitat in BC. Mountain caribou are completely dependent on large tracts of intact old-growth forest in southeast BC and parts of three US states for their survival. The BC, Canadian, and US governments consider mountain caribou to be in danger of extinction. The number of mountain caribou has fallen from 2,400 in 1997 to 1,670 today.
