    Very cool! I was working in northwestern Ontario the last few weeks and the guys that were up there moose hunting were telling me that they were seeing lots of caribou.

    Rope Here in Wisconsin if one hits a white tail deer they can keep the meat if they want it after notifying the authorities. Is it that way in Alaska?

    Yeah, here too! One local guy bagged his buck one year (with his truck) and put it on deer hunter's roundup (radio program). The announcer asked him what caliber rifle he used and his reply was "RFF".

    What? asked the announcer? Right Front Fender the guy answered.

    Generally no, here there is a list kept by the troopers. First call is to the soup kitchens, then work down the list. First yes gets it, if no one on the list is a yes, only then will you get the chance.
