When I saw this news story, and googled moose population in NYS, and I found there are approx. 600-700 in the ADK's. It's been several years (2001) since I finished my 111's on Esther but then there were only a handful. Reminds me somewhat of the turkey population. When I was a kid growing up in VT there weren't any, and now there are thousands in VT and NH.

I suppose some people will argue that humans should have let nature take its course with the moose, but not I, who found this story heart-warming. Thanks for sharing.

Those snowmobilers are A-OK.
