This long-term study investigates the factors affecting individual variations in behaviour, reproductive success and population dynamics. It also addresses the links between life-history traits and animal behaviour. This project is built on a database that began in 1988 and fieldwork is continuing.

This project investigates patterns of space use, life-history traits, habitat, genetics and demography of the Rivière George and the Rivière-aux-Feuilles caribou herds. We also work on the ecology of large mammals in interaction with migratory caribou, i.e. black bears, wolves, muskox and the mountain caribou of the Torngat. This project started in 2006 and will continue at least until 2030. Website: www.caribou-ungava.ulaval.ca.
This research program aims to understand and predict the dynamics of interactions between winter tick and moose populations in eastern Canada as a function of current and anticipated climatic conditions and moose population densities.This project started in 2019 and was completed in 2024.
