Abstract

Two wild 1 1/2 year old male moose (Alces alces), which displayed symptoms associated with parelaphostrongylosis, had abnormal antler development and numerous kidney stones. A 4 year old moose suspected of parelaphostrongylosis had cervicorn antler structure, but abnormalities were not apparent. No kidney stones were found during examination of kidneys from 56 additional moose, including 12 that displayed symptoms of parelaphostrongylosis.
