Age-related reproductive effort and senescence in free-ranging moose, alces alces
TL;DR: Monitoring known-age radio-collared females of a large ungulate, the moose, in a Swedish population showed that older moose have to give birth to heavier offspring to achieve the same offspring summer survival as that for offspring of younger mothers, which suggests that females increase their reproductive effort as they get older.

Partial migration by large ungulates: characteristics of seasonal moose Alces alces ranges in northern Sweden
TL;DR: In this paper, seasonal migration of individually radio-collared moose Alces alces in a partially migrant population in northern Sweden was investigated, and the authors compared the snow conditions and the composition of the vegetation in the seasonal ranges of 36 migrants and 30 residents.

Age-specific moose (Alces alces) mortality in apredator-free environment: Evidence for senescence in females
Göran Ericsson,Kjell Wallin +1 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that males would experience senescence in survival earlier than females in a non-hunted population, and an increase in hunting mortality with age for both sexes, with males facing a higher risk of dying than females.

Hunter observations as an index of moose Alces alces population parameters
Göran Ericsson,Kjell Wallin +1 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that hunter observations of moose reflect moose population size and reproductive rate reasonably well, and can be used to monitor population fluctuations, and may be used as a supplement to more costly monitoring methods.

Indicators of biodiversity, what do they indicate? - Lessons for conservation of cryptogams in oak-rich forest
TL;DR: Signal species seem not to be unequivocal in prioritising potential reserves among valuable oak-rich woodlands and surveys by Red List species experts may be needed.
