USING SNOW URINE SAMPLES TO ASSESS THE IMPACT OF WINTER TICKS ON MOOSE CALF CONDITION AND SURVIVAL

Alces, 2019
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

, 2001
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 ...

Susceptibility of winter tick larvae and eggs to entomopathogenic fungi - Beauveria bassiana, Beauveria caledonica, Metarhizium anisopliae, and Scopulariopsis brevicaulis

Alces, 2017
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.

MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGES OF ORGANS DURING ONTOGENY OF MOOSE (ALCES ALCES) COMPARED TO DOMESTICATED RUMINANTS

, 2002
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

THE EFFECTS OF SEX, TERRAIN, WILDFIRE, WINTER SEVERITY, AND MATERNAL STATUS ON HABITAT SELECTION BY MOOSE IN NORTH-CENTRAL ALASKA

Alces, 2016
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 ...

AN ASSESSMENT OF MOOSE AND ELK TRAIN COLLISIONS IN ONTARIO, CANADA

Alces, 2019
To better understand train collision mortality of moose (Alces alces) and elk (Cervus elaphus) in Ontario, we measured collisions along a 20 km segment of railway using post-winter railbed surveys (11 consecutive years), remote cameras, and radio ...

AGE-RELATED ANTLER CHARACTERISTICS IN AN INTENSIVELY MANAGED AND NUTRITIONALLY STRESSED MOOSE POPULATION

Alces, 2018
We studied age-related antler characteristics of moose (Alces alces) in Alaska Game Management Unit 20A (during 2007–2010) because of concerns about poor antler development given the population’s high density and unusually low nutritional status.
