White Moose

repost.jpg



(and they have magpies in ontario?)
 
Hi those pics on the previous page were taken in B.C. a few years ago . I have a friend in Northern Ontario that started a petition on stopping the white moose hunt and he suceeded.All white moose hunts are banned in Ontario. In this region were he lives in the summer there are approximitely 25 whites roaming around in the wild. Why in that era nobody knows why and there not albinos neither they all have brown eyes. He started this web-site whitemoose.ca so if you want more imformation on them please check out his site..

No one.


From the Ontario HUnting Regulations:

Note on White Coloured Moose: The Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Act, 1997 prohibits the hunting of moose that
are predominantly white coloured in Wildlife Management
Units 30 and 31, an area near Timmins, Chapleau and
Foleyet. This regulation does not affect the availability of
moose validation tags for resident and non-resident hunters.

Crap, glad I asked this question because I assumed you could if following the regs. What about the rest of the provinces?
Thats my, learn something new for today.
 
These white moose are not albinos but rather possess an uncommon recessive colour gene. These white moose have been spotted all across Canada and while rare are not unique.
