The text summarizes two years of research and development by the Alaska Fish and Wildlife Research Center, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, the Idaho Department of Fish and Game, Yellowstone National Park, the Canadian Wildlife Service, the Yukon Department of Renewable Resources, the University of Idaho, the University of Alaska (Institute of Arctic Biology and Alaska Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit Service), Argos, and Telonics, Inc.

The authors provide detailed experiences using the Argos system to obtain locational and behavioral data on polar bears, caribou, muskoxen, brown bears, gray wolves, moose, Pacific walrus, and Dall sheep in Alaska and elk and mule deer in the Rocky Mountain region, aiming to help prospective users of satellite telemetry in their research.
