The moose (Alces alces) is a charismatic species in decline across much of their southern distribution in North America. In the northeastern United States, much of the reduction has been attributed to winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) infestations ...

A Winter Outbreak of Anaplasmosis in a Nonendemic Area of Oklahoma: A Possible Role for Dermacentor Albipictus [PDF]
Anaplasmosis is endemic in cattle in several areas of the USA, including eastern and central Oklahoma. This rickettsia-induced hemolytic disease caused by Anaplasma marginale commonly occurs during warm months when arthropod vectors, both biological (ticks) and mechanical (biting flies), are abundant.

Simulation models for moose in New York including hypothetical disease and harvest scenarios help explore management options under uncertainty. While the population currently appears to be stable, increases in parasite‐induced disease attributed to shared space‐use with white‐tailed deer could lead to declines in this marginal moose population ...

Forest harvest and natural stressors compound to reduce juvenile ungulate survival
Anthropogenic disturbances, such as forest harvest, create risky landscapes for juveniles by increasing their vulnerability to predation and hunting, and when combined with natural stressors like parasitism, likely drive population declines. Managing landscapes with a species‐centric approach that addresses the cumulative effects of human and natural ...

This study, led by the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa, tracks survival and examines causes of adult moose mortality from 2010 to 2022 on the Grand Portage Indian Reservation and in Voyageurs National Park. Using a Bayesian framework, we integrated multiple contributing factors to accurately estimate cause‐specific mortality probabilities ...
