驼鹿的生态与北方森林的生态密切相关。驼鹿首次出现在化石记录中是在上新世晚期和更新世早期的冰川推进期间，随后经历了适应性辐射，产生了两个属（Cervalus和Alces）和至少四个物种（Telfer 1984）。现存的唯一物种Alces alces在6500-7000年前辐射成8个亚种，其中7个存活下来（Telfer 1984）。构成北方森林的白杨、香脂杨、桦树、云杉和香脂冷杉的组合大约在同一时期出现（Larsen 1980）。北方森林和驼鹿
he ecology of moose is intimately tied to that of the boreal forest. Moose first appeared in the fossil record during the glacial advances of the late Pliocene and early Pleistocene, subsequently undergoing adaptive radiation that produced two genera (Cervalus and Alces) and at least four species (Telfer 1984). The sole extant species, Alces alces, radiated into eight subspecies, 6500-7000 years ago, of which seven survive (Telfer 1984). The current assemblage of aspen (Populus tremuloides), balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera), birch (Betula papyrifera), spruce (Picea glauca, Picea mariana), and balsam fir (Abies balsamea) that constitutes the boreal forest arose at about the same time (Larsen 1980). Both the boreal forest and moose
