This week on Outdoor Journal Radio, Ang and Pete are joined by Brent Patterson and Joe Northrup of the Ontario MNRF to get a status update on Ontario’s moose populations and to find out why/if they are in decline.

First, however, a bit of housekeeping was in order. Topics discussed included: three weeks on the road; The Trailer Park Boys; Vince McMahon; mouse traps; Fish’n Canada w/ Bob Izumi; Colin McKeown; tournament fishing etiquette; Great Whites in Nova Scotia; and rough fish episodes on The Fish’n Canada Show.

With those matters out of the way, Brent and Joe join the show! Topics discussed included: what is causing Ontario’s moose populations to decline; the logic behind calf tags; the European model of moose management; winter ticks; shooting collared moose; why more hunters makes moose hunting harder; the multi predator problem; how poaching is factored into assessing our population health; keeping road kill; and much more!
