White Moose on the Loose!

SERGIO VENNERI · October 27, 2009, 07:25:00 PM

I called this rutting Bull out on Sept.29,09 .He was in full rut and only took a couple of cow calls to bring him out. He is part of a small herd of protected White Moose about 55 miles west of Timmins.I have also seen a couple of cows and a calf over the years.

May be a silly question, but why are the white moose protected? Just curious.

Hi Tom;
This small herd is near Foleyet, close to the groundhog river.Good to hear from you.

SERGIO VENNERI · October 27, 2009, 10:23:00 PM

Bob; The white moose are protected because of their rarity i suppose.The fault in that kind of management is that you can shoot a brown Moose in the same unit and it may be carrying the recessive gene.

Hey, if he was quartering away a bit, you could aim at the "spot"!

Get rid of the shoulder hump in that pic and he'd look like a horse at a glance.

The pics are great, one of those rare moments for sure.

Thanks Fella's; Here are a couple more pics.

These are some pics hanging in a restaurant in the little town of Foleyet.

Heres a pic of My brotherinlaw Paul,standing next to a mount of a white Bull, that was mounted after a collision with a train.Paul does not hunt , but is probably the best Walleye fisherman that i know!!

I should clarify that these are not albino's,i believe they are probably piebalds.
