RAISING MOOSE CALVES IN ONTARIO
Abstract
Moose (Alces alces) calves were raised in captivity in Ontario to study the association between ticks and moose. Calves were obtained from the following sources: 14 had been orphaned or abandoned; 29 were removed from cows when approximately 1-14 days of age; and 5 were collected at 6-8 weeks of age. Two of 3 calves were successfully raised in 1980, 4 of 27 in 1981, and all of 18 in 1982. Techniques used are described.
