So are they protected. A gun would be the first option otherwise ?

It sounds like an enraged musk ox trumps a hazed musk ox.

Yesterday, I protected my birdfeeder from the dray of robber squirrels by covering the plastic pipe standard with a stainless steel sleeve extending up about 40” from the ground

What a way to go
Death by muskox

Somedays you get the bull
Other days you get the horn

Trooper should've "shew" the muskox away while standing in his castle...

This is probably the best squirrel-abatement method I've ever seen.

Well, with the exception of something using gunpowder...

Apparently approaching boldly and yelling shoo isn’t the way to go.

A bullet might just make him angrier.

Wow, that guy looks like serious business. Those horns would open up an artery without even trying.

That squirrel deterrent could be entertaining to watch.

Ha! Houses are too close for firearm use around here. The neighbor behind us actually killed one of my big dual-pane sunroom windows. He paid for it (he’s a good neighbor). Don’t get me started on the local deer...

I didn’t even realize we had musk ox in Alaska. Are they native?
