Tuesday 30th September
The woods are full of hunters. Strangely dressed people
walking out of the woods with guns. Moose/Elk hunting season started 25th
of September and continues for a month or until the quota is achieved. Each
region is dissected and a moose/elk count is completed by various government
agencies. From which a quota or kill count is determined. Tepee tents with
groups of hunters pop up in idyllic landscapes. But a moose/elk hunter is not a
hunter without Elghund (Elk Hound) An ancient Northern Spitz-type breed which
in the National dog of Norway.
A stocky, strong willed herder and guardian.
The fashions’ of the hunter is an oddball mix of camouflage
and fluro fabric with serves as both a disappearing and reappearing act.
Camouflage to hide from the prey and fluro to avoid being shot by your fellow
hunters.
Now, I don’t have an opinion on the ethical treatment,
either for the for’s or against. I am just reporting the goings on of my local
environment….
