Ironbound
Outfitters has one of the best success rates for Newfoundland
moose hunting among all outfitters.
Have
you ever seen a bull moose moving swiftly through the forest?
Would you like to see one? These huge animals, the largest living
members of the deer family constitute one of Newfoundland's greatest
wildlife assets. The tourist, pausing with his family by a Newfoundland
lake, thrills at the sight of a moose feeding quietly in the wilderness.
The hunter, escaping from the pressures of business and urban
living, finds solitude, excitement and the feel of the wild when
hunting for the mighty moose.
Moose
is the largest member of the deer family. Mature males sometimes
weigh up to 1500 pounds. Moose were introduced to the province
of Newfoundland in 1904, and because of the excellent forage have
increased their numbers to 120,000. Many areas of the province
boast the highest moose densities in the world. A large bull moose,
standing higher than a large saddle horse and sporting a massive
antler display can be an imposing and challenging quarry.
The
mating period for moose, considered by many hunters the most successful
time for hunting, runs from late September to early November.
Notwithstanding the rut period, some of the very best times for
hunting moose is after the rut, during the latter part of November.
Newfoundland moose are classified as "Eastern Canadian." Though
generally smaller in body and antler size than their Alaskan cousins,
Newfoundland moose are no less challenging to hunt.
That
experience can be yours by hunting with us during the Newfoundland
moose hunting season. At Ironbound Outfitters we pride ourselves
