Moose-hunting in Canada - en route for the Hunting Ground, 1858. Creator: Unknown
Moose-hunting in Canada - en route for the Hunting Ground, 1858....a couple of habitans snugly ensconced in a rude sleigh drawn by a pony, on their way to the hunting-ground, the snow-shoes and iron pot suspended behind suggesting visions of hard tramping and good feasting... The favourite months for hunting the moose are March and September, although numbers of them are killed during all the autumnal and winter months...When the snow is soft...[the moose] sweep through it without difficulty, and at such times it is difficult to keep up with them... Though not all orthodox, there are five methods by which the moose is killed in the several British-American provinces: by creeping upon them in the autumn and winter; "calling" the bull moose, in the autumn, when he is wild, fierce, and roving; running them down on snow-shoes, in February and March; bringing them to bay with dogs; and by the mean practice of snaring'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858
