White moose are common where my brother lived in central BC. He lived in Faser Lake. He even got a photo of a piebald moose that looked like a pinto pony. Like you said, most white are not albino, they are piebald. I have a poor copy of the pic.
Like the old joke goes, one of his neighbors almost ran into three white moose in a snowstorm. (No kidding)
My brother had a calf permit one year and he had to wait for a pure white immature bull to get out of the way before he could shoot the calf. The bull was legal, but he took the calf instead. The hunting regs make note of the white moose in the area, and request they be left alone, but it is legal to shoot them.
When my dad was a kid he lived near Wetaskawin Alberta. An indian hunter got a white moose and when he tried to sell the hide to the fur guy he was offered only $10 because of the small bullet hole in the neck. The indian had his wife make the whole thing into moccassins.


Where abouts are you at Joel?

AS to the idiotic abomination remark by TSadler, it has been a while since I have seen such a rediculous remark posted here.

Fabs - you could not have come up with a more appropriate response than you did. Good for you.
I wonder if it is lost on Traci...
