COSEWIC assessment and status report on the gray fox, Urocyon cinereoargenteus, in Canada .: CW69-14/295-2016E-PDF
"Since the publication of the 2002 COSEWIC status report, a second sub-population containing breeding animals has established, as well as increased presence of Gray Fox in Quebec and New Brunswick. Gray Fox in Manitoba continue to be present though breeding has not been established. Individual animals recorded in New Brunswick, Quebec, and Manitoba are considered to be individuals that have recently dispersed from adjacent populations in the United States. Because of the absence of breeding evidence, animals in New Brunswick, Quebec, and Manitoba are not considered relevant to status. As part of COSEWIC status assessments, Aboriginal Traditional Knowledge (ATK) reports are prepared by the Aboriginal Traditional Knowledge subcommittee (ATK SC). These initial reports compile and summarize ATK relevant to status assessment when ATK information is available and readily accessible. A Gathering Report may be undertaken if there are significant knowledge gaps, or if major contradictions exist between ATK and other forms of knowledge. The ATK SC has not identified ATK specific to the Gray Fox in Canada”--Preface (p. xi).
