Moose tooth age survey
« on: October 23, 2016, 09:59:46 PM »
Pulled out a tooth from my moose last fall and sent it to the game dept for aging.
Came back at 4 years old.     Guess I shot a baby :chuckle:

Got my 2015 moose age back last month. He was 9 years old. Makes me wonder if he was regressing?

Wow 11 and I thought mine was old.

With the introduction of wolves, I wonder if the age of bulls harvested will lower?

I have still not received that info from F&G. I wonder if it's because I didn't harvest till Nov 25th last year? I guessed mine to be 3 to 5 and am thinking it will be 4 like Falcons bull. Interesting to see the bull and age pics. I hope more former moose tag guys find this thread and post a pic and age. will post mine when I get my results. :tup:

Mine was 9.   That's the perfect age for a monarch

With wolves they will be lucky to be 4 years old.

This is great, I love to know the age of animals, I would have never guessed 9 and 11 years old that's amazing. It took 9 months for me to get my tooth age results for my deer. Mailed teeth off in December,
