Abstract
Baseline reference ranges of serum chemistry and hematology data can be important

indicators for the status of both individuals or populations of wild animals that are affected by

emerging pathogens, toxicants, or other causes of disease. Frequently, reference ranges for these

values are not available for wildlife species or subspecies. We present hematologic and serum

chemistry reference ranges for moose (Alces alces) adults, yearlings, and calves in Norway sampled

from 1992–2000. Additionally, we demonstrated that both induction time and chase time were

correlated with initial rectal temperature, although they were not significantly correlated with

cortisol, aspartate aminotransferase, glucose, or creatine kinase. Overall, the reference ranges

given here are similar to those given for American moose, with a few differences that can be

attributed to environment, testing methodology, or subspecies or species status. This is the first

report, to our knowledge, of reference ranges for moose in Norway.
