Figure 4: Predicted autumn-winter survival probability of moose calves with migratory versus stationary mothers in south-central Scandinavia. Calf survival was investigated by performing field checks on GPS-collared female moose and their calves. The behavioural strategy of the mother (migratory or stationary) was estimated using Net Squared Displacement.

The separate analyses on a subset of female moose showed that calf survival was negatively correlated to hunting risk (Fig. 5) but was not significantly related to wolf predation risk (Table 3 in Supplementary materials).
