The story of the life cycle of caribou within the Porcupine Herd, one of the largest migratory herds in North America. The herd moves back and forth between northeast Alaska and Canada’s Yukon Territory, traveling thousands of miles each year over centuries-old caribou trails. Wandering in search of food, caribou travel nearly three thousand miles each year – farther than any other land mammal. They dig through snow for nearly eight months to find the nourishing lichens. In the summer they graze freely across the tundra. For children ages 4-8 (preschool-Grade 3). Battle of the Books 2000-2001 Level 4
