Caribou is not very tasty. Elk, on the other hand, is just about the most delicious animal I’ve ever eaten.

You right. Caribou tastes like chicken! On the whole I've enjoyed moose burgers more.

Ever have a beffalo burger?

A few years ago my brother made caribou stew. I really enjoyed it.

Sure elk's the best, but not many elk in Ak; you learn to eat what you have available. Summer caribou are ok; they get foul around rut, but cows are good all winter.

Everybody where we live shoot a bunch when they come thru. A little bigger than whitetails, but I only get maybe 75 lbs of high quality lean deboned meat from a cow. I'll get over 500-600 lbs from a moose.

In Alaska, rural & urban people all hunt to supplement what you have to buy at store; part of the lifestyle. Photobucket

“Caribou is not very tasty. Elk, on the other hand, is just about the most delicious animal I’ve ever eaten.”

An avid deer hunter I know insists that caribou is the tastiest wild game.

I hear you about elk though, I intend to do an elk hunt no later than next year. Bison is also on the list. =:-D
