The North American Moose Conference and Workshop began in 1963 with an informal meeting of biologists in St. Paul, Minnesota.

These publications became increasingly substantial, ending in the launching of the peer reviewed journal Alces in 1981. The moose conferences have served an important function in facilitating the exchange of information, especially by providing useful meetings and field trips in different parts of the North American moose range.
