Moose harvest numbers above five-year average

This year's moose harvest looks to be above the five- year average with the moose count at 64 just 17 days into the season.

Between 2014 and 2018, the average moose count for this time of the season was 58. There was a dip in the moose harvest this time last year, with only 42 being taken.
