Abstract
⺠A cost-benefit analysis of moose (Alces alces) harvesting in Scandinavia is analysed. ⺠Four categories of animals are considered: calves, yearlings, adult females and adult males. ⺠Calves, yearlings, and adult females are harvested for meat and adult males are subject to trophy hunting. ⺠It is shown that the per animal values are instrumental in determining the optimal harvesting composition.
