Mike had to sit there with his coffee and just watch.

Those moose aren’t stupid. I’m sure he knew the season had ended.

A customer of mine at the local Harley dealer is from Alaska. We were talking about it and I said that I heard hunting moose was very expensive. He said out of state moose permits were $3000. Considering you can hunt ferel pigs in Florida without a permit or hunting license and with no season, size, sex, hour (you can even spot light) or bag limit EVEN IF YOU ARE FROM OUT OF STATE that is a little expensive. The only stipulation is it has to be on private property with owner consent.
Edit: Also there.are basically the same rules on public property but there is a season and I think it is dawn to dusk. I don't hunt on public property so I'm not that up on the rules.
