RE: Poaching is WRONG!!
I don' t agree that its insignificant. Its exact level is unknown, but it is significant. Again, ask a G&F officer. With the moose herd declining and road mortality increasing due to residential development and gas field growth, 3 moose is significant. If you don' t want to look at it from a ethical standpoint, consider that moose tag availability is based on calf numbers. Every loss in calf production affects chances hunters have at drawing a tag. With increased pressures from drought and road traffic, the impact of poaching is one of growing significance worthy of losing sleep over.
