Censusing Moose

Description

Because much of the range of moose is remote from population centers, and because large Moose populations have developed relatively recently, little effort has been expended in finding practical ways to census moose. The methods presently in use are aerial surveys and sex and age ratios. Other techniques for censuring big game, however, have been developed, and these could probably be adapted for use in censuring moose. Aerial surveys and sex ratios, however, are not particularly suited to censuring moose in the parts of its range where the coniferous forest type prevails. Therefore, a new technique for censusing moose will be proposed in this paper. It is hoped that this method will be useful in censusing moose, particularly in the eastern portion of its range.
