The length of the frost-free season was determined as the difference between the first day of the first 5 consecu- tive days in spring with minimum tempera- ture > 0 oC and the day before the first 5 consecutive days in autumn with minimum temperature < 0 oC. Several data sources were used to esti- mate past trends in deer populations, with other information subjective in nature and formed by expert opinion.	cache/alces-227.pdf	txt/alces-227.txt
