- The island of Isle Royale in Lake Superior has historically contained both moose and wolves. In recent years, the number of wolves has dwindled, leaving few predators for the moose. This has led to a large increase in the moose population on the island. The following information is from 2018. Using this information and the equation shown, the growth rate for the moose population on Isle Royale can be calculated. Based on the current population and the growth rate, what type of growth model would be expected? K = 2,000 moose N = 1,500 moose Rmax = 0.5 where: dt = change in time N=population size ax =maximum per capita growth rate of population K= carrying capacity A logistical growth model would best represent this population because the moose population will decrease over time.
