Default RE: Are Moose really that dumb???

Some ares here where natives hunt them 3 months out of the year they run when they here a vehicle driving down the road..

The state here allows hunts by lottery and it is only 2 weeks worth of hunting. The first week opens today for about half the lottery winners. They have can only hunt for 6 days total for 1 moose. The next hunt is for the other lottery winners who will start the 6 day hunt 2 weeks from today. So the moose really do not have much hunting presure and will appear dumb. They have a great sence of smell and hearing so without much pressure they will hang around. Normally calling them is the key, keeping quite and waiting for that big one to come out. They sometimes will answer a call and at other times will not. But all in all 6 days is not much time to give any pressure to them.
