There may be areas where they were "wiped out" (most likely Indian areas)

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.

I can attest to the fact, I will actually swear on the bible that the moose and bear, black and grizzly, are still well and alive, and flourishing in the great Canadian North. Actually, I live in souther BC and both moose and bear, and coyote, and raccoon, and porcupine, and ground hog, and cougar, and skunk, and numerous other wildlife are doing just fine here. I live in a rural area and I see them all. There is no shortage, and no one is here hunting them to extinction. Jeez I wish people knew what they were talking about before shooting off their mouths.

Well, I ain't in Canada but I can be there in less than 2 hours. I have moose, deer, turkeys, coyotes, fisher cats, rabbits, foxes and who knows what else in my back yard. And I've had a bear inside my house, as has my brother and my mother and countless neighbors. There's so many moose and bears that they are a stinkin nuisance (my opinion) and deer and turkeys aren't far behind. Deer are a huge nuisance in some places.
