Location and associated data came from whooping cranes from the Aransas-Wood Buffalo Population, 2009–2018. We marked a sample of 68 whooping cranes with leg-mounted transmitters that acquired locations via the global positioning system (GPS) network and transmitted those data through the Argos satellite system. Cranes were captured either at their natal areas in and adjacent to Wood Buffalo National Park in Canada or at their winter terminus along the Texas Gulf Coast. Transmitters provided different quantities of data because of the variable transmitter functionality and survival of marked birds. Multiple partners administered this research project and collected these data, including the Canadian Wildlife Service, Crane Trust, Platte River Recovery Implementation Program, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and U.S. Geological Survey.

The Wood Buffalo National Park (WBNP) Bison Abundance database is a data set that documents numbers of bison observed during bison population estimate surveys conducted in WBNP. Survey methodology was standardized from 2002 to present. A strip transect survey allows for both minimum counts and a population estimate with accompanying estimates of precision. Survey intervals have ranged from 2 to 5 years. The study area is based on the subpopulation boundaries outlined in Joly and Messier (2001), and is thought to include the entire ranges of the Delta, Garden River, Hay Camp and Nyarling subpopulations, as well as about half the range of the Little Buffalo subpopulation. Wood Buffalo National Park was created to protect habitat and prevent extinction of the Wood Bison (Soper 1941).

Snowshoe hare are a keystone species of the boreal forest with a 9-10 year population cycle. Hare densities are positively correlated with other species and can have significant impacts on vegetation during portions of their cycle, and may affect plant survival and composition on a local level. There are 4 permanent transects located north of the Peace River, a sample regime suited for making accurate assumptions about the snowshoe hare cycle in Wood Buffalo National Park. The methodology for this measure is standard across North America.Monitoring is done by counting fecal pellets in study plots and then clearing the plot of pellets. This takes place once a year every June to estimate the population density of snowshoe hares.
