- In August the seasons are set + prior to
then the owner of a large tract of private
land - say over 1000 hectares - makes application
for the number of moose he can shoot on his
land. This is checked with local conditions.
A general season of 6 days is now current
+ begins on Sept [September] 8 in the North Oct [October] 13 in the south. After this the
owners or lessors of rights on large tracts
have a further 24 to 25 days to remove
the rest of the permitted kill.
There are no guides + non residents
must take their chances with the rest.
In general Sweden has never had a
bull law, except locally for short periods
where rapid increase was desired. Since
1925 both sexes open constantly but not
calves. In a few areas now where forest
damage is increasing calves are legal.
Main winter food of moose Pinus sylvestris [underlined]
+ Salix. Snow depths from 0 to 2 meters.
Experience is that motherless calves seldom
die but may be retarded in growth.
There has been a steady increase in
moose + in roe [deer] over the last 25 years
both sexes killed in both. 5000 head taken
25 +/- years ago - now about 20,000 of each.
About 120,000 hunters seek moose, so
success is low.
