Don't forget to share your best ones and please do include a picture. We are exited to be getting ready to go on our annual moose hunt.

It happened in BC this summer.(I have not included the link because I don't want the publisher to benefit from it. You can search it on YouTube if you really must see it.) I want you to know this is not cool! Disturbing/harassing wildlife while swimming is an offense and is punishable. The wildlife conservation officers in BC are looking for the culprits who did this. Observe|Report to your local Authorities! Report All Poachers and Polluters (RAPP) WE DO NOT SUPPORT THIS TYPE OF CONDUCT One of the reasons I bring this topic up is that on a recent camping trip some fellows from England were camping beside us and were quite excited to be heading to Bowron Lakes to do a seven night canoe trip around the chain. The younger of the two exclaimed he was looking forward to riding a moose. He'd seen it on YouTube! I was quick to point out that he should NOT be doing any such thing and why he shouldn't.
