Moose Calving peaks during May
Cows may aggressively protect calves
Calves that appear alone are almost always not orphaned, and they don’t need rescue
It’s not unusual for a cow to walk off and leave her calf for periods of time, leaving them someplace that they deem safe from predators
Remember:
Respect a moose’s personal space
Don’t feed moose – it’s illegal and dangerous
Report moose, especially moose with calves, in housing, parks and schools, as well as any other wildlife concerns
Contact SFS Dispatch 24/7 at (907) 552-7070 if you see a moose or other large wildlife so they can notify our JBER Conservation Law Enforcement Officers
