Summary

The breeding stock composition and ecology of Canada (Branta canadensis) and cackling (B. hutchinsii) geese, collectively white-cheeked geese, staging in interior Alaska and wintering in the Pacific Northwest is poorly understood. We captured, measured, and applied neck collars to white-cheeked geese during spring and fall staging near Fairbanks and Delta Junction, Alaska, USA, to study their breeding stock composition, migration, and winter distribution. We measured exposed culmen, flattened wing chord, total tarsus, and body length of geese staging in interior Alaska to assist with determination of breeding stock. The first principal components, as well as a univariate measurement of exposed culmen, indicated geese trapped in Fairbanks [...]
