At the turn of the century 18/1900 Swedish law looked upon Young people as being adults at about the age of 15.

In the 1980?s the moose population in Sweden grew explosively due to big changes in the silviculture with clear cuttings instead of single-tree selection. Clear cuttings brought big areas of Young forest and therefore a lot of fodder in one place. Since this change, the discussion about how to manage the moose population has grown into a very big problem. Forest owners think that the population needs to be strongly reduced because of all the damage that is done to the Young forest when the moose seeks its food, and the economic losses because of that.
