ABSTRACT: Habitat use by parturient moose (Alces alces) may have important implications for calf survival and subsequently influence population dynamics. Because neonatal habitat may be limiting or specialized and little descriptive information exists in the northeastern United States, this study was conducted to measure the physical and vegetative characteristics associated with neonatal habitat of 30 maternal moose. There was no difference (P > 0.10 for each parameter) in 22 of 23 physical and vegetative parameters measured at neonatal (n = 30) and random sites (n = 30). However, neonatal sites were about 2X farther (P = 0.032) than random sites from cut/regeneration ...
