HISTORIC AND CURRENT DISTRIBUTION OF MOOSE IN THE NORTHEAST USSR

Authors

Abstract

I reviewed the historic and current distribution of moose in the northeast portion of Siberia. Moose distribution in this area has changed considerably during the past two centuries due largely to fire and plant succession. Moose currently are expanding into tundra shrub areas along the Bering Sea and Arctic Ocean. I believe moose will continue to persist in these areas if given protection and human uses are controlled.
