Ecosystem dynamics are shaped by interacting top‐down and bottom‐up processes, yet their relative importance may vary through time following disturbances such as disease outbreaks and changes in apex predator communities. Using a 52‐year time series in south‐central Sweden, we examined how disease, apex predators, and prey availability jointly impact a

ECHINOCOCCUS GRANULOSUS GENOTYPE G8 IN MAINE MOOSE (ALCES ALCES) [PDF]
During a 2012 survey of harvested moose (Alces alces) in Maine (USA), an incidental finding of hydatid cysts was found in 39% (21 of 54) of lung sets examined. Cytology of cyst contents was consistent with Echinococcus granulosus.

Detachment of engorged female winter ticks (Dermacentor albipictus) from captive moose (Alces alces) was studied in Ontario during March and April, 1981–1984. The earliest detached engorged female was observed on 15 March, and for 9 of 15 moose, on 25–26

PROVINCIAL POPULATION AND HARVEST ESTIMATES OF MOOSE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
Provincial population and harvest estimates of moose in British Columbia, Canada were assessed over a 28-year period from 1987 to 2014. The population generally remained stable, whereas the licensed hunter harvest declined gradually by about half despite

GENETICS, EVOLUTION, AND PHYLOGEOGRAPHY OF MOOSE [PDF]
Early studies of genetic variation in moose (Alces alces) indicated little variation. Recent studies have indicated higher levels of variation in nuclear markers; nonetheless, genetic heterogeneity of moose is relatively low compared with other mammals ...

Horizontal visibility, rather than concealment cover, drove fawn bedsite use and predation risk. Greater field of view decreased the odds of coyote predation, likely by facilitated by early detection. As fawns transitioned from hiders to followers, they shifted from using dense overstory concealment to more open overstory that favored improved escape ...

DEMOGRAPHIC STATUS OF MOOSE POPULATIONS IN THE BOREAL PLAIN ECOZONE OF CANADA
Broad scale analyses of winter population survey data collected between 1985 and 2015 were conducted to provide a synthesis of the current status and historical performance of 14 moose (Alces alces) populations residing in the Boreal Plain Ecozone of ...

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...
