Table 2 Wintering regions and subsequent summer breeding regions of 39 greater white-fronted geese (Anser albifrons frontalis) captured and fit with GPS-ACC-GSM transmitters during winters 2016–2018. Values are percentages of the total number of GPS locations in each winter region (GPS) that correspond to breeding regions from the number of geese that wintered there (n). Regions include Interior Alaska, USA, Western Alaskan coast and Seward Peninsula, Alaska, USA (West AK/Seward Pen.), the North Slope of Alaska, USA, mainland Northwest Territories, CA (NWT), Western Nunavut and high Arctic islands of Nunavut, CA (West NU/Arctic Isl.), central Nunavut, CA, and eastern Nunavut, CA
