Mammals of the Yukon Territory: This primarily taxonomic study of the 64 species of Recent mammals recorded from the Yukon Territory of Canada attempts to discover the proximate origins of terrestrial species in the northwestern Arctic and Subarctic. Ecological data are included for some species, and distributional maps are provided for all native terrestrial species.

Sixty per cent of the Yukon and Alaskan terrestrial mammals originated in the main unglaciated portion of North America to the south of the main continental glaciers, and 35 per cent of the fauna in the unglaciated region in Siberia, Alaska, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories known as “Beringia”. The remainder are thought to have been derived from other small refugia, or are introduced species.
