The Report
The 120 page report is the result of a year's work by leading waterfowl
scientists and managers from the U.S. and Canada. This group of experts
was directed to compile and examine scientific evidence on the overabundance
of various populations of geese, then make management recommendations to
the Arctic Goose Joint Venture Management Board (AGJV), an arm of the North
American Waterfowl Management Plan.
The final report is about ready for distribution to waterfowl managers,
researchers and administrators in all levels of government and the private
sector in the United States and Canada. In addition to accepting and endorsing
the report, the AGJV is working with the Canadian Wildlife Service, U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, and various states, provinces and flyway councils
to implement the report's recommendations.
