Do you really believe what you type? Just curious…
You can request the raw data from ADFG. They don't calculate the numbers for you, you'll have to dig into it yourself.
It's 100% fantasy land where he lives. He hasn't hunted anything besides a SS check in 10 years, let alone ever walk in off the road and kill a FC ram in a HT area in a day and be home before dinner.
Why would I hunt for my social security check......??? It is deposited automatically every month into my checking account. I'll bet you ten thousand dollars I can prove that has been the case for 12 years plus. Of course you are lacking gonads. I assume you know exactly where I live, but that only proves you know very little if anything about game populations in this area. For another ten thousand dollars, I show you where that pocket of sheep hides. Of course you got no gonads.
So you admit you haven't done it, but 2 people did it once, how many years ago? I'm guessing a couple decades? But by your estimation its very common, and there are "pockets" of sheep that get overlooked?
Yep, pockets of sheep all over the place, super common. Congratulations? I know a guy that shot 70" bull moose on the highway this year. By your logic anyone that didn't kill a moose is an idiot, they just need to drive around on the highway and find a 70"er. Happens all the time, actually 10,000 times in a year down by Hope. I'm sure you've probably done it twice this year alone.
See......once again you have skillfully shown you don't know much about game population, and nearly zero about the general Hope, Alaska area. There used to be large moose populations, here. So many that in the late 1960's F&G built a series of corrals along the dirt Hope Road (built 1957-58) to study moose feed consumption. There where a lot of moose here till they locked up and closed the hunting of Brown Bears on the Kenai Peninsula. The bear population exploded, and that was in my opinion the destruction of the massive moose population. So once again you are WRONG. And full of deeply flawed information. But this is understandable given you gather your education from the internet.
You can look up general numbers easily on adfg back to 2010. I think with the advanced stats you can go back further and parse out non resident vs resident. I think the number of hunters column adds up both res and non res along with both unsuccessful and successful.

I'm not sure what you're shooting for with the corrals, or if its just your Alzheimer's is kicking? Let me guess you helped build those corrals and broke half those moose to pull sleds and ride? Where you here when Cap'n Cook sailed up the inlet too?
The corrals were built to study how much habitat the moose required. The corrals were about 30' by 30' and intended to keep the moose "OUT". That way they could allow the vegetation to grow inside the corral where the moose could not have access to it. For years the vegetation "outside" the corrals was browsed and kept at a height of about (4) four feet tall, this included willows, new growth birch trees, alders, everything was kept trimmed surprisingly uniform height, for decades.
Wrong........what I am saying is anyone who can walk up hill (including Anchorage, AK. City hunters), can drive to places (a few on the Kenai Peninsula) and with a basic harvest ticket, collect a full curl Dall Sheep Ram off the road system, in one day.
