How to kill big-game with a snowmobile
WINTER SPORTS -- I wish I could say it's uncommon for people to chase wildlife on motor vehicles, but it's not. I've seen it often, and heard about it more often.
And some people, such as the snowmobiler above in Colorado, are bold enough to post their ignorance on YouTube.
This is ignorance in a spotlight. We all know it happens in this region, too. We should never let it go on without comment or referal to wildlife authorities.
Moose in particular will sometimes run long distances in front of a snowmobile to take advantage of the packed trail. It happens on roads, too. Pushing an animal to extremes, especially in winter, can leave them vulnerable to death in their winter-weak conditions.
By the way, it's against the law.
