Heads exploding in liberal readers all across bicoastal America. The rest of us are saying, “Yeah, moose - yum!” I have a moose who occasionally reposes in my front yard - watched him grow up from an adorable little moosling. Certain friends ask me, “Why don’t you shoot him?” My reply: “Because then I’d have a dead moose in my front yard.” These kids got 500 lbs of meat out of it. Think about that: 500 pounds. Of meat.
