Moose Hunting Info >> Moose Hunting Tips

The Alaska Moose, scientific name “Alces alces”, inhabits the forests and river valleys of Alaska. Moose are exceptional in that they are the largest member of the Family of Deer ( Cervidae ), and the Alaska sub-species is the largest Moose of all. According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game Alaska has an estimated 175,000 moose each year. This healthy population of moose greatly increases your chance of a successful hunt. A bull moose could weigh in at up to 1500 pounds and a mature cow a half ton. The rack from a mature bull moose weighs about 65 pounds. Quality guides and outfitters are plenty to choose from and the services they offer are more than satisfying.
