Man Shoots Moose in Utqiagvik

[Akwoodchuck]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.....moose are where you find them:

Utqiagvik man harvests moose in Arctic Alaska, far from its normal habitat

A lack of shrubbery in the area for a moose to browse makes this “a very fluky fascinating thing,” a researcher said.

Back in the early 80s there were a lot of moose on the Slope. A few ventured as far north as Prudhoe Bay but most stayed along the willows in the river beds toward the foothills. Float hunters on the Colville found abundant moose but had difficulty keeping the meat away from the grizzlies.

I've seen moose 5 miles south of Deadhorse and I've seen Musk Ox 50 miles south of Atiguin Pass.

I saw one on the slope a few years ago.....looked lost.

.243 kills anything. and the exit wound is like a golf ball.
