An airborne moose is a strange sight but that's what happened to 19 of the animals last week as they found themselves being transplanted from Bear River to the Scofield Reservoir area last week. Judging from the facil. expression this particular moose 'would just as soon be doing some-indee- d, thing else. Conservation officials reported the animals adapt well to a new environment and were actually none the worse for wear following their helicopter ride, (IrflQD 010 fiBtaitiaa MHnBBMf mw Eho pper Moves Moose The past two weeks two game management projects have taken place in Summit County. The first was the moose and elk count that was taken the last week of January. The count is taken when snow conditions are best and this seems to be before the crusting conditions set in. This year turned out to be one of the best as far as snow conditions were for counting. We managed to get what we thought was a good count on both moose and elk. A total of 207 elk and 84 moose were counted in the Chalk Creek-Ec- ho Canyon , area. animals compete directly for winter range and the deer always come out on the short end of things. The moose buildup does not seem to affect the deer herd as they are able to use winter areas in the higher elevations. In almost all cases, moose were counted in areas where the snow was two to four feet deep. Moose also seem to adapt to almost any typeofwinter- - ing areas as we found them in oakbrush, lodgepole pine, willow bottoms, service-berr- y and aspen areas. The second project was the just completed moose transplant. This project was The breakdown on the moose count was 29 bulls, 38 cows, and 17 head of calves. We were unable to get a complete breakdown on the elk count because of the difficulty in separating the cows and calves in the larger moose being transplanted from Bear River to the Scofield Reservoir area. This year the project called for 12 more units to be transplanted to complete the On the total that we were project. As it is difficult to get herds. able to classify, we had the folio wing breakdown: 23 bulls, 28 cows, and 18 calves. As the bulls still have their antlers, they were easy to pick out so this figure does not reflect a true bull-co- w ratio. The cow-ca- calves per ratio is 64 lf 100 cows which shows a good productive elk herd. The biggest problem with a large build up in the size of the elk herd would be the continued suppression of the deer herd. These two big game started last year with GKffliJi pounds. This project went exceptionally well consideringthat most of the animals had to be airlifted two to three miles to the trucks. All of the cows that were checked, with the exception of one, were found to be preg-ria- nt and one cow that was tested was thought to be pregnant with twin calves which is quite common after the cows have had their first calf.
