I am more of the mind that there just shouldn’t be any a antlerless moose tags. :twocents::yeah: if moose are dwindling as pretty much everyone agrees they are, then there's zero justification for shooting momma moose.
But you are correct beauhunter, I agree that it should also be once in a lifetime. I also think that it should count as your one moose in WA. Lot of folks don't care if it's a bull or cow and most apply for it only because it's cheap. Guarantee if you did that the app pool for cow moose would drop in half

Too much logic in this post. I will throw out I apply for bull and cow moose every year but would be more than happy drawing a cow tag and losing out on a bull. I'm one of those "looks the same in the freezer" types. If they're going to offer tags I'll apply but I'll agree it seems odd to hear numbers are dropping and they're still offering cow tags.

I totally disagree about hunting ewes. Sheep populations need to stay in check until we provide more protections against domestics on the fringe of wild sheep ranges.
I wish that transferring sheep to new areas or letting them expand ranges was an option but that wave seems to have slowed down the last couple years because of disease transfer and domestic livestock contact.
