Did you hear about the guy that shot and killed a moose back in 1995?

It was up in Douglas County where I hunt. He was dragging it out after dark for obvious reasons. The wardens had seen his vehicle was still there long after dark so they decided to greet whomever owned the vehicle on a hunch. If no one came out, they would have gone in with a search party in the morning.

Well, the guy showed up with the moose and claimed he thought it was deer. Needless to say, he can't legally hunt in Wisconsin any more.

That actually made me sad. It was probably one of the two moose I saw the year before lounging around in a swampy area where I hunt. A cow and her calf. The calf was bigger than most whitetails when I saw them during the gun deer season (traveling between two stands).
