From that evidence, they concluded that moose populations on sepa- rate continents had not undergone signifi- cant genetic drift despite being separated for thousands of years, implying that effec- tive population sizes of moose populations historically had been large. keywords: 1995; a. a.; a. alces; alaska; alces; alces alces; alleles; allozyme; america; analysis; andersson; antler; asia; authors; bering; beringia; biology; boreal; bottleneck; bowyer; bowyer moose; canada; changes; continent; control; deer; differences; different; distribution; divergence; diversity; dna; drift; e n; e r; east; eastern; ecology; editors; effective; effects; entry; et al; eurasia; european; evolution; evolutionary; expansion; far; fig; geist; genetic; genetic variation; glacial; guthrie; habitat; haplotypes; harvest; hundertmark; hundertmark et; hypothesis; ice; individuals; journal; large; levels; loci; low; mammals; management; microsatellites; mikko; mitochondrial; molecular; moose; moose genetics; moose populations; mtdna; n t; new; north; north america; o n; observed; pages; phylogeography; pleistocene; polymorphism; population; present; press; recent; region; review; russian; ryman; s e; schwartz; selective; significant; single; size; species; structure; studies; subspecies; time; usa; variability; variation; worldwide; years cache: alces-443.pdf plain text: alces-443.txt item: #478 of 586 id: alces-445 author: Baskin, Leonid; Ball, John P.; Danell, Kjell title: MOOSE ESCAPE BEHAVIOUR IN AREAS OF HIGH HUNTING PRESSURE date: 2004-01-01 words: 5139 flesch: 65 summary: Based on our analysis, we suggest that quantifying the escape behav- iour of moose may lead to a better under- standing of the selective force human hunt- ers are exerting on moose populations, and may lead to improvements in using hunter observations to manage moose populations.

Funda- mental questions remain about what limits or regulates moose populations as there is much geographic variation in the relative effects of predators, human hunting, and primary production (Gasaway et al. 1992, Crête and Courtois 1997, Saether 1997, Crête and Daigle 1999). keywords: accessible; adult; aerial; alces; areas; autumn; average; capacity; carrying; central; changes; crête; day; days; decline; deer; densities; density; dynamics; ecology; effects; estimate; factor; females; ferguson; fig; forest; habitat; hunter; hunting; increase; indices; insular; kill; km2; licence; low; management; mccullough; mclaren; mercer; moose; moose density; msy; national; newfoundland; newfoundland moose; number; observations; observed; park; peak; period; population; recruitment; regression; relative; reports; resident; season; series; sex; size; success; surveys; table; time; trends; usa; vol; wildlife; winter; wolves; year; young cache: alces-511.pdf plain text: alces-511.txt item: #518 of 586 id: alces-513 author: Spaeth, Douglas F.; Bowyer, R.
