REPRODUCTIVE PARAMETERS OF MOOSE DURING POPULATION EXPANSION IN NORTH DAKOTA
Understanding reproductive parameters of a population is vital to management, especially during periods of population fluctuation. Therefore, our objective was to provide the first estimates of reproductive parameters such as pregnancy rates, litter size,

The risk of meningeal worm (Parelaphostrongylus tenuis) infection in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and neurologic disease in moose (Alces alces) in eastern North America is influenced largely by the effects of weather on deer density and ...

The most important sources of sodium for moose (Alces alces) in Sikhote–Alin are: (1) freshwater aquatic vegetation (river, lake, and bog); (2) marine water and algae; and (3) sodium–saturated ground waters and soils at salt licks.

MOOSE AND DEER POPULATION TRENDS IN NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO: A CASE HISTORY
Many interrelated factors contribute to the rise and fall of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) and moose (Alces alces) populations in the mixed boreal forests of eastern North America where these species often cohabit.

A STUDY OF ELAPHOSTRONGYLUS ALCES IN AN ISLAND MOOSE POPULATION WITH LOW CALF BODY WEIGHTS
We studied prevalence of Elaphostrongylus alces (Protosyrongylidae; Nematoda), weights, mandible lengths, and mandible marrow fat in a moose population (Alces alces) at Utö in the Stockholm archipelago from October 1989 to November 1994.

USING SNOW URINE SAMPLES TO ASSESS THE IMPACT OF WINTER TICKS ON MOOSE CALF CONDITION AND SURVIVAL
Snow urine samples collected in northern New Hampshire, USA were used to measure urea nitrogen (UN) and creatinine (C) content to develop ratios for tracking the nutritional restriction of individual moose (Alces alces) through winter (2014–2017 ...

REDUCED COST OF REPRODUCTION IN MOOSE ALCES ALCES THROUGH HUMAN HARVEST
In life history theory there is a cost related with all resource allocation. For female moose (Alces alces), the cost of reproduction in terms of survival may be reduced for females if calves, or cows without calves, are selectively hunted during the ...

An isolate of the soil fungus Scopulariopsis brevicaulis was identified from the surface of female winter ticks (Dermacentor albipictus) collected from recently dead moose (Alces alces) calves in New Hampshire in the northeastern United States.

The ontogenesis of body mass, the skeleton, organs of the alimentary tract, and the endocrine system of moose (Alces alces), cattle, sheep, and goats were studied in the Ivanovo region using morphological and ontogenetic methods. We noted that changes in

Habitat selection is a central component of the ecology of individual animals as it affects body condition, survivorship, and reproductive output. We instrumented male and female moose (Alces alces) in north-central Alaska with GPS radio-collars to ...
