Hunting seasons for bulls were shortened and delayed to the post rut period in 1982; antler size and conformation restrictions first imposed in 1973 were increased in 1982 and a short, pre-rut Limited Entry antlerless season was opened in 1982. It is hypothesized that the regulations will increase both the conception rate and the productivity of the population by increasing the bull component and the mean age of bulls and decreasing the cow component.</p>}, journal={Alces: A Journal Devoted to the Biology and Management of Moose}, author={Demarchi, R.
