Report of a study to determine the relationship between urea space measurements, impedance measurements, chemically determined composition of the peroneus muscle group, and chemically determined body composition in moose (Alces alces), to determine if moose body weight can be predicted accurately from measurement of body length and heart girth, and appraisal of physical appearance, and to determine if these techniques have potential to estimate moose body composition in field applications.

"The book contains the essential information that wildlife biologists and managers use to manage wildlife populations today, and it gives students the information they need to pursue a profession in wildlife management and conservation"--
