1 Effort/Moose =Hunting Effort reported by moose hunters (Hrs)/ Reported Harvest
2 Moose Observations = Effort reported by moose hunters (Hrs) / # moose observed while hunting
Note: In 2008, five moose hunter report forms indicated “no hunt.” The success rate for each affected season/zone accounts for this reduction in permits.
The following table demonstrates the representation of bulls and cows in the 2008 harvest in comparison with the previous nine years.
