A huge congratulations to Katie Tjaden-McClement who recently defended her MSc Thesis !
Katie has worked hard to understand and evaluate large mammal species-interactions in the Chilcotin Plateau region of B.C. Specifically, she investigated whether disturbance mediated apparent competition (DMAC) was the main reason for decline for the Itcha Ilgachuz caribou herd as well as the potential competitive impacts of feral horses on other native ungulates in the region.
