Management and Regulated Harvest of Moose (Alces alces) in Sweden
Sylvén, S. 2003. Management and regulated harvest of moose (Alces alces) in Sweden. Moose management has contributed to the large changes in the Swedish moose population during the last decades. Simulation experiments and monitoring of population parameters are two tools in the management system studied in this thesis. They can be used to increase the understanding of effects of different harve...
متن کاملVARIATION IN METATARSAL MORPHOLOGY AMONG SUBGROUPS OF NORTH AMERICAN MOOSE (Alces alces)
The objectives of this study were to characterize variation in dimensional data from the metatarsus of 4 different subpopulations of North American moose (Alces alces) that are known to differ in stature, and to determine if specific metatarsal width measurements (proximal, middle, distal) can be used to accurately predict metatarsal length in these subpopulations. We found that subpopulations ...
متن کاملWarm-season heat stress in moose (Alces alces)
Understanding howmoose (Alces alces (L., 1758)) are affected by temperature is critical for determiningwhy populations have recently declined at the southern extent of their North American range.Warm-season heat-stress thresholds of 14 and 20 °C are commonly used to study moose, but the variable response of free-ranging moose to temperatures above these thresholds suggests thatmoosemay bemore t...
متن کاملAnaplasma phagocytophilum infection in moose (Alces alces) in Norway.
Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tick-borne bacterium that infects a wide range of animal species. The aim of our study was to investigate the prevalence of A. phagocytophilum in Norwegian moose Alces alces and to characterize the bacteria by sequencing of partial msp4 and 16S rRNA genes. Hunters collected spleen samples from 99 moose of different ages during 2013 and 2014 in two areas: Aust-Agde...
متن کاملthe condition of scots pine stands in lahemaa national Park , estonia 25 years after browsing by moose ( Alces alces )
The effects after 25 years of moose browsing on Scots pine stands in Lahemaa National Park were evaluated, emphasizing economic damage. A re-evaluation in 2001 examined stands that had been evaluated in 1975–1976. Moose damage significantly affected the tree species composition which changed over time as pine dominance increased and the number of mixed stands declined. The smaller proportion of...
