This paper examines a number of extensive moose density fluctuations in Estonia over the last century and the related issues. The greatest conflict in forest-moose relations emerged in 1970-1980, when the moose population reached its peak. Overpopulation resulted in extensive forest damage. The establishment of a monitoring system and its endorsement by game management authorities in the early 1990s helped to improve the situation. The monitoring involves the estimation of both moose population parameters and moose influence on forest regeneration. Today, the moose population in Estonia has reached its optimal proportions as laid down in the Environmental Strategy - approximately 10,000 animals - and forest damage has decreased
