Abstract
Climate change is transforming Arctic Alaska and is impacting spectacular wildlife populations there. This region is renowned for its polar bear, muskox, vast herds of barren ground caribou, and the millions of migratory birds that come from around the globe to breed on the Arctic coastal plain. Projections for the near future indicate that the Arctic is changing dramatically due to the cascading effects from steadily increasing temperatures. What such profound changes mean for wildlife conservation is not clear.
