Major decreases from last year occurred in beaver, muskrat and squirrel. This, along with the reduction of marten, which had been the top value fur producer for the past four years, accounted for the greatest decrease in value. Overall fur production value was $ million, a decrease of $.9 million or 40 per cent from last year. Fur prices are expected to rise since inventories accumulated by manufacturers over the past years are decreasing. Trapper Education courses were conducted at 16 . locations and completed by 200 participants. Canadian Hunter and Esso Petroleum contributed to an aerial inventory of woodland caribou in the Chinchaga/ Fontas area to develop a short-term strategy for protecting the local herd. Home Oil and Wood Buffalo National Park contributed funds to complete an aerial inventory of the Caribou Mountains. This data is being examined to determine conditions that will allow seismic activities to proceed. Daishowa Canada and Weldwood of Canada contributed to an ongoing inventory of wildlife in their respective forest Bird Game and Big Game Licence Sales. 1986-87 198788 1988-89 1989 90 management agreement areas. As well, Weldwood continued their forestry/wildlife integration project and began developing computer models to predict wildlife habitat conditions after logging. Parasite and disease research again focused on concerns regarding the potential translocation of parasites in cervids. In cooperation with the University of Alberta, experimental infections of meningeal worm in a. variety of species (elk, fallow deer, mule deer, domestic sheep) were completed and the results are to be presented in a sci
