Description
Eastern Cow Moose with Calf: This photograph of an Eastern Cow Moose and Calf was taken near Lake Umabgog (Lake Umbagog National Wildlife Refuge) in Northern New Hampshire/Maine in July 2016. Since the 1990s, moose populations have declined dramatically in much of North America, although they remain stable in arctic and subarctic regions. The exact cause of the die-off is not determined, but appears to be a combination of factors, including a change in habitat and heat stress caused by global warming, poaching, the reintroduction of wolves, and the northward migration of warmer-weather parasites to which moose have not developed a natural defense, such as liver flukes, brain worms and winter tick infestations
