Animals Illustrated: Caribou
by Dorothy and David Aglukark (Authors) and Amanda Sandland (Illustrator)
Booktalk: In this book written by elders from Arviat, Nunavut, kids will learn how caribou raise their babies, where they live, what they eat, and other interesting information, like how fast caribou can run–up to 50 miles per hour!
Snippet: Inuit have known for generations that caribou herds are led by one lead caribou. The rest of the herd is always watching the lead caribou for guidance. This caribou communicates to the others when it is safe to walk, and when they should stay still. The lead caribou could be a male or a female.
