In connecting traditional uses of caribou and moose with anatomy, one of the goals this project hoped to achieved was to incorporate aboriginal languages. As most of us working on the project at the University of Calgary don't have this knowledge, we are relying on community partners to help us build this section. If you are interested in contributing to this section, we would love to hear from you! Please contact jinvik at gmail.com.
Our first two contributions come from educator Susan Paskvan, Native Language Coordinator in the Yukon-Koyukuk
School District in Alaska who has kindly provided some words and phrases of Denaakk'e (Koyukon Athabascan) and the Wekèezhìi Renewable Resources Board who have provided
us with a poster of TłĮcho terms for Caribou anantomy.
