EDMONTON - Government documents show that animals other than ducks have died at Alberta's oilsands site.

Documents obtained by Greenpeace under freedom of information legislation show that at least 164 other animals died during oilsands operations between 2000 and 2008.

Those animals included 27 bears, 67 deer, 31 foxes and 21 coyotes.

Moose, beavers and wolves also died, although the cause of death isn't specified.

The documents cover Syncrude, Shell and Suncor operations.

Syncrude is currently in court on provincial and federal charges over the deaths of 1,600 ducks that landed on its tailings pond.
