PECULIARITIES OF DAILY MILK PRODUCTIVITY OF PECHORA TAIGA DOMESTICATED COW MOOSE AND THEIR INTERCONNECTION WITH REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION
Investigations of 17 postpartum lactation periods of 5 domesticated female moose (Alces alces) were made over a 4-year period at the Pechoro-Ilych Nature Reserve in the Komi Republic. Duration of domesticated cow moose lactation period averaged 105 days. Maximum milk production averaged 6-7 liters o...
