Answer to submitter. It is good if there are fewer and fewer moose in the forest

Bernt Ersson Do not want to reduce the moose strain. But in order to achieve our national goals in economics, climate and biodiversity, I mean it is necessary to reduce the moose strain to a more normal level.

The foundation of the management of the moose in the country is The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's regulations. According to this, we must have an adaptive management in order to create an moose strain in balance with grazing resources. It should also be taken into account important general interests such as impact on biodiversity and forest damage.

In order to achieve balance and consideration of damage to biodiversity and forest damage, measurable goals have been produced. These are evaluated through moose grazing inventory which is a very accurate method for assessing whether we have achieved balance or need to lower the moose strain. Since the results have shown too much damage to biodiversity and damage to forests all years, more moose have been shot.

The results of inventories has shown that the reduction in the moose strain has made great use. The damage has decreased and the feed resource has increased. But since the legislation was introduced in 2012, it has been more diligently counteracted. Campaigns have been started that the moose should be threatened and disseminated requests not to comply with the legislation. This has meant that the positive development has turned.

If you follow the legislation, it automatically means that the moose would be red listed, not because it is threatened, but because it has decreased in number. ArtDatabanken has a great responsibility in conveying knowledge to the public so that no one failed to believe that the moose is threatened because the tribe is small. The reduction is made because the moose strain was abnormally large and for us to achieve our goals. Despite the decrease is the moose strain The world's densest. It is man who has created this situation through ignorance and ignorance.

When domestic species become extremely common, the same problems are created as with species that are invasive. So far, we have no invasive species that has as much negative impact on biodiversity as the moose does at present.

The moose are not feeling well of feed deficiency that the extremely large stems lead to, and the risk of starvation is obvious. Parasites such as the moose fly become more common and plague animals to death when the moose strain is dense. Unlike Bernt Ersson, I do not think it is madness, but good to reduce the number of moose so that you get better forests with greater biodiversity, better economy, better climate adaptation and moose that feel better and do not starve.
