Bunji was probably one of the tourists that reported seeing the moose

Maybe the moose are cruising in the UFO with Bigfoot and Elvis? It would explain why their only seen occasionally

I doubt there is anything, so Schrödinger's Mooses will live forever.

Haha.

So if they exist and you seen one would you shoot it or let it live ??

For me I'm shooting it dead I'll take being hated for shooting the last one at least I'd be believed

What sort of scientific approach has been taken?

For the Sika cull in Northland they seem to be able to know everything about them through scat and hair and water sampling. How many, where they come from, family groups and all manner information. Even now down to the number left (which is very few).

I know its different with moose cos there isn't physical evidence, but science must be able to tell us something?

yeah I dunno Thar - science cant seem to be able to find a bloke and 3 children at Marakopa but then are they looking seems not

As a 17yr old, this city boy went on his very first hunting trip into the awe inspiring Ureweras.

My first question was if I saw a moa, do I shoot it?

I was told by the oldest (and wisest) of our party.

If you see one and shoot it, they'll lock you up.

And if you see one and tell anyone, they'll lock you up.

Mum's the word. I never saw one.

Original poster I would like nothing better than a real sighting.
Then what happens?
