Data for Moose Population Survey on Western Yukon Flats NWR - Fall, November 2008
A moose population survey was conducted on the Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge in November 2008. The estimate for the 2,269mi2 survey area in the western Yukon Flats (Game Management Unit [GMU] 25D) was 490 moose (95% confidence interval; 412-569 moose). Density of moose was 0.22/mi2. The population was comprised of 251 cows (95% CI; 203-298), 110 calves (83-137), and 127 bulls (100-155). Search time averaged 6.3 minutes/mi2. The 2008 estimate of total moose was 15% greater than the November 2006 estimate of 417 (311-524). This difference was related to numbers of calves, which were 54% greater than November 2006.
