Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, when you add up the numbers, the latest numbers from the seven herds, you get a number of about 1.2 million animals. That is the number that is in question. Also, in 2005, the Department of ENR arrived at a number of 1.534 million caribou that they gave to the Canadian Cooperative Wildlife Health Centre that was doing a survey study in terms of what the number of caribou were in the Northwest Territories. How is that number of 1.5 million arrived at? Mahsi.
