ATK supports that a decline has occurred in the George River subpopulation. The population estimate for mature Caribou of the EM three generations (18 – 21 years) ago is 833,774 Caribou, suggesting a decline of 80% over three generations.

The estimated number of mature animals is 170,636. The minimum population size for the EM is 227,513 Caribou of all ages, based on the most recent total estimates for the Leaf River (2016) and George River (2016) subpopulations, and most recent minimum estimates for the Cape Churchill (2007) and Southern Hudson Bay (2011) subpopulations. Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador Most of the remaining caribou reside in the Leaf River subpopulation, which continues to decline. Threats appear to be less prevalent in the two western subpopulations which represent only about 4% of the existing total population. Although migratory caribou populations fluctuate in abundance, there is concern that recent and predicted threats will limit population growth in a population that presently is at its lowest recorded level. Two declining subpopulations contain about 99% of the Eastern Migratory population the George River has declined by 99% over 3 generations, and the Leaf River by 68% over two generations. The decline is predicted to continue because of overharvest, and a decrease in habitat quality associated with climate change and development. The present population estimate of 170,636 mature animals indicates there has been an 80% overall decline in number over three generations (18-21 years). This migratory caribou population exists as four subpopulations from coastal western Hudson Bay to Labrador.
