There may be areas where they were "wiped out" (most likely Indian areas) but there ain't no way in hell that the moose and bears have been wiped out in Canada.
Oh sure blame the Indians. We all know it was the Newfies. They ate all the cod fish too .
And when was the last time you saw a moose in your back yard. I haven't seen any either. They just vanished. The whole herd. Vanished.
