WHY?? The moose was eating and minding his own business. Seemed pointless. And they acted like they snuck up on a unicorn. Apparently they’re everywhere up there. Big deal…..

We did until wolves were reintroduced.

wolves can take down a moose? What about grizzlies?

A wolfpack can take down anything

Yes, and do so regularly. Grizzlies can, but wolves make a much bigger dent in

Because they like eating moose I imagine.

Not quite that easy (hunting them)… and many families in Alaska rely on the meat

And many other people just want to hang horns on the wall.

So, whats your point? If they have a permit/tag to do it, why do you care?

This is such an uneducated take. It is illegal to waste wildlife.

I didn’t say anyone is poaching. Just that the goal is the trophy

pink22

Define trophy hunting. It’s pretty subjective.

Oh. Sorry. In that case, so what?

It’s weird to want the head of a dead animal on your wall

pink22

Not to some people.

I've got a great buck Antelope on the wall my son shot. We ate it. It was ok not

Yes, understanding that others have different opinions than you is difficult…..

Humans have been hanging the horns of animals on the walls of their caves

Because an over-population of any animal in a given environment is destructive.

I'm having a hard time believing your question is serious.

I look forward to Pink22 invading every hunting thread with innocent questions

Innocent…just like that moose

Then I'll make this even easier - here's the contact info for all the AK regions

Why do you care? That moose fullfilled it's measure of creation. No different

Not just the numbers, but the size of the moose in Alaska are significantly

BoiseBlueCoug

9/25/23 4:42pm

Me too. That there are more moose in Idaho than Montana makes no sense. I know

Parker Schnabel

9/25/23 4:44pm

SD doesn't have a single moose?

Mitty

9/25/23 4:51pm

Just saw 3 in the grand Tetons. I think I was in Wyoming.

Whoa, there is a moose or two in Nevada?

We had a moose and her calf hang out in our backyard for a few days this month
