Framed Print of Winter sports in Canada: moose-hunting: game in sight, 1868. Creator: Unknown
Winter sports in Canada: moose-hunting: game in sight, 1868. Engraving from a photographs by Mr. W. Notman, photographic artist, of Montreal, showing...a hunting party at the door of their tent, where they have been watching till they have just got sight of their game...The chase of the moose deer, or cariboo, in the forests and plains of British America, especially in New Brunswick and Lower Canada, is one of those manly sports which beguile the long winter of that region, and call into exercise the spirit of adventure, the courage, skill, and fortitude of its ardent votaries amongst the colonial population. The noble animal in question, sometimes called the American elk, is rather larger than a horse...Its habits are solitary while feeding, and its acute sense of hearing makes it very difficult for the hunter to approach. It is usual to look for the foot-tracks of the moose in the snow, and to follow its course, but with extreme caution, making as little noise as possible till near enough to get a shot. When the snow is deep, the hunters are accustomed to wear the long and broad snow-shoes of the country, in which they can walk upon the surface without sinking'. From Illustrated London News, 1868.
