Abstract

Moose (Alces alces shirasi) are fed alfalfa (Medicago sativa) at four locations in western Wyoming to minimize damage to haystacks. Feedgrounds are on private property and only in areas where extensive damage has occurred repeatedly. History and effectiveness of the feeding program in preventing damage, other damage prevention measures, and moose population dynamics in western Wyoming are discussed.
