Moose Management
With winter is on its way, moose
are coming down from the hills.
Before the snow falls moose are
much harder to see along our
roads and highways. The Alaska
Moose Federation encourages
drivers to slow their speeds and
keep an eye on the ditches. Keep
your windshields and headlights
clean and please buckle up. No
one likes the moose on our
highways. If you would like to
learn about the Alaska Moose
Federation’s efforts of keeping
moose off our highways, please

Moose Removed From Colorado Army
Post
Thursday July 21, 2005 7:23pm
FORT CARSON, Colo. (AP) -
Soldiers and state wildlife
officers captured an intruder
that had penetrated a fenced
area on this Army post: a
500-pound female moose. The
Division of Wildlife said
Thursday the moose had wandered
into an area reserved for
equipment that will be returning
from Iraq, where more than
10,000 Fort Carson soldiers are
deployed.
"The location was less than
ideal for a moose," said Steve
Cooley, a wildlife manager for
the Division of Wildlife.
The animal was taken to Grand
Mesa, about 200 miles away in
Western Colorado, where the
Division of Wildlife is trying
to re-establish a moose herd.
It was spotted Wednesday.
Wildlife officers tranquilized
it and loaded it into a trailer
with the help of about a dozen
soldiers.
Fort Carson, in Colorado
Springs, provided 600 pounds of
ice to put in the trailer to
keep the moose cool for the
drive through record-high
temperatures.
Cooley said it wasn't clear how
the moose got into Fort Carson,
adjacent to Colorado Springs. He
said moose are solitary animals
known to roam hundreds of miles.
