PRESENT PARADE

This Week MINERVA

By Bill Quinlivan

denpubs@denpubs.com INDIAN LAKE — The November meeting of the board of the town of Indian Lake saw a unanimous vote to adopt a preliminary budget for 2015 that has been hammered out over the past several weeks.

For the purposes of the mandated NYS Property Tax Cap computations, the budget represents $3,523,129, which is an increase of 4.703 percent, or $158,246 over the 2014 Budget figure of $3,364,883.

Directly after the unanimous vote to adopt the preliminary 2015 budget, Indian Lake Supervisor Brian Wells communicated his gratitude and recognized the work of the board members and department heads in diligently bringing the estimated levy down from where it stood prior to the beginning of the budget workshops.

That tentative budget stood at $3,683,913, which would have represented an increase of 9.481 percent over 2014. Wells made note of how difficult the stateÕ s Mandated Property Tax Cap is for towns and noted that over the past few years, the townÕ s administration has managed to remain within the mandate, but not without paying the price as a community with regard to true growth and progress.

Wells closed his comments by saying, Ò the tax cap is a killer, but I believe we did a good job with arriving at a responsible budget.Ó CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

Jessey Mueller claims NMCS championship

By Justin St. Louis

Devil’s Bowl Speedway WEST HAVEN Ñ Young stock car driver Jessey Mueller has officially been named the champion of the Northern Modified Challenge Series (NMCS).

The 19-year-old from Olmstedville, N.Y., put together an impressive run of victories and podium finishes during the season to become the second champion in series history. The NMCS is a unique tour that pits open-wheel modified stock cars against each other on both asphalt and dirt surfaces.

Mueller started off the 2014 schedule the same way he did in the seriesÕ inaugural season, with a victory at the legendary Thunder Road International Speedbowl 1/4-mile in Barre on Memorial Day weekend. Mueller did well in twin 30-lap features on the 4/10-mile at Airborne Park Speedway in Plattsburgh in July, with a runner-up in the opener and an eighth-place run in the nightcap Ð his only finish outside the top-three.

The championÕ s defining moment came on Aug. 1 at the Carrara Masonry & Concrete C.J. Richards Memorial 67 at

the half-mile asphalt track at DevilÕ s Bowl Speedway in West Haven. Mueller Õ s engine blew in a dramatic cloud of smoke during the qualifying round, but his family team was able to swap in a new power plant and rebound for the victory later in the evening.

A third-place finish at Airborne in September was followed by another third and a victory in twin 50-lap races at DevilÕ s BowlÕ s Mekkelsen R.V. Vermont 200 Weekend. Mueller opted to sit out the final event, the Autosaver Ford/Springfield Buick-GMC 100 on the new 1/3-mile dirt track at DevilÕ s Bowl in November, but had already mathematically clinched the championship.

Veteran drivers Leon Gonyo and Vince Quenneville, Jr. fought for the runner-up position in the NMCS championship the entire season. Both drivers split victories in the twin 30s at Airborne in July, but Gonyo was a tick better down the stretch with a pair of second-place finishes to take overall position. Quenneville settled for third place ahead of Airborne track champion Nick Heywood. Jason Durgan took fifth overall. The season’s eight races were won by Mueller, Gonyo, Quenneville, Bobby Therrien (Airborne), Ron Proctor (DevilÕ s Bowl), and Adam Pierson (DevilÕ s Bowl dirt).

Thank you athletes!

W

ith the fall high school sports season coming to an end, weÕ d like to recognize some of the athletes who gave it their all in fall sports this year.

In football, Peru (Class B) and Saranac Lake (Class C) picked up Section VII championships as they both rose to top-10 state rankings, each picking up a win against Section X foes on their way to regional final appearances. The Ticonderoga Sentinels claimed the Section VII Class D football title with an impressive fourth quarter win over heated rival Moriah, moving on to handily defeat Tupper Lake in the regional semifinals and trading scores with Section II’s Cambridge/Salem before falling to the Indians in the Class D regional final game.

BeekmantownÕ s Justin Stevens (and lets not forget the offensive line) set a Section VII all-time record of 1,963 rushing yards while Peru quarterback Blake Altizer found his way into the record books as well with a section-best 71 career touchdown passes.

Also worth mentioning, the MayorÕ s Cup match between Saranac Lake and Tupper Lake made a return after a three-year hiatus, going the way of the Red Storm.

In boys’ soccer, Chazy and Beekmantown represented their section well, traveling to Middletown where Chazy suffered a tough Class D semifinals loss in penalty kicks to International Prep while Beekmantown topped Livonia 1-0 before falling in the Class B championship game.

The girlsÕ teams from those two schools made plenty of noise of their own. Both fell only one game shy of a trip to the state semifinals, though itÕ ll be a sad goodbye to a handful of senior stars from each roster, including Beekmantown senior Kallie Villemaire (31 goals, 25 assists) and Chazy senior Rachel Pombrio (22 goals, four assists).

The combined Bolton/Warrensburg girls soccer team made history, advancing to the NYSPHSAA Class C Final Four in Cortland. While they were unable to bring home a victory, it was a positive first step for an emerging program between the two school districts.

Speaking of combined teams, perennial powerhouse Chazy isnÕ t alone in Class D. The newlymerged Elizabethtown-Lewis/Westport team took the Eagles to penalty kicks in the Class D final, and in the previous round, only one goal separated the Griffins from Keene. The three teams combined for a 41-11-3 record.

Oh, and wait, what was that, Makenzie Winslow just scored again. The senior striker compiled 59 goals for the Minerva/Newcomb Lady Mountaineers in leading her squad to the Section VII Class D finals for the first time in either school’s collective history. Winslow, however, would not

November 22, 2014

be able to take her place on the field against Chazy, but the Lady Mountaineers proved they belonged on the field, playing an inspired game in the face of long odds and earning the respect of their opponent. In the end, Winslow finished with 122 career goals. She might want to keep her eyes on the paper in a few years, though, as sophomore Jordan Bush starts her ascent up the scoring list next season.

In volleyball, Beekmantown was unstoppable.

The Eagles won every league game 3-0, including the Section VII Class B title game. Lake Placid swept Northern Adirondack for a Class D crown of their own, and later that same day, AuSable Valley and Plattsburgh played one for the ages, a 3-2 nailbiter that went the way of the Patriots.

Two local cross country runners finished third in their class in states at SUNY Canton Nov. 8Ñ Seton CatholicÕ s Margaret Champagne and Plattsburgh’s Jeriqho Gadway. The Lady Knights finished a perfect 20-0 while the boys of Lake Placid raced to a 19-1 mark. The Saranac boysÕ and girlsÕ teams were right behind, both finishing 17-3.

EKMW may not have had the number of runners needed for team wins, but the Emus sent three runnersÑ Jon Gay, Tom Maron and Myra Adams—to states. Gay finished tenth overall in Class D competition. It’s a shame the secondfastest runner in Section VII qualifiers wasn’t on the All Star roster because he ran in too few dual meets.

When it comes to swimming, two names come to mind. Or four, depending how you look at it.

Kelly Davey, Meghan Davey, Brooke Kelley and Alexis Kelley helped Plattsburgh to a perfect season ahead of Peru, AuSable Valley and Moriah.

The PatriotsÕ Emily McCormick kept the Hornets from going 11-for-11 at the Section VII championship while Cydney Bond and Kylei Pena (Peru) and Lydia Brown (AuSable Valley) each picked up two second-place finishes.

ThereÕ s a rising star in gymnastics. PeruÕ s Delaney Brown, only a seventh grader, picked up six all-around wins to help cap off a perfect 6-0 season for the Indians. With a deep roster and five more years of Brown, Peru should be poised for years of success. PlattsburghÕ s Madison Baker and Hannah Kaltenback, along with BeekmantownÕ s Kailey Quackenbush and Desiree Dashnaw, were often close behind.

To the teams and players missingÑ there are many more deserving of the recognitionÑ know that we had you in mind. Lastly, a thank you to the coaches, referees, families and fans who put their energy and support into what was an exciting season. And most of all, win or lose, to the players.

Letters to the Editor

Editorial appreciated

To the News Enterprise: Thanks for the article on the need of a viable third party, The Green Party (GP) has participated in New York state politics for several years but it hasnÕ t been easy. To get on the ballot in New York, a party need thousands of signatures according to its enrollment. To stay on the ballot, a party has to get at least 50,000 votes for its gubertatorial candidate. This is no problem for the Democrats and Republicans who have huge resources but it is for an independent party like the Green Party that refuses to accept money from corporations or PACÕ s and refuses to enter into fusion with the two major parties or tneir satellites like the Working Families Party (WFP). Also the two major parties have inserted tneir duopoly into the NYS Constitution by setting up a Board of Elections that only they can administer and hire workers who must be registered in either party! The New York City Board of Elections is especially partial to this duopoly. Its ballot understandably reserves the first two columns exclusively for their candidates but comprises third party columns by co-mingling other candidates who are not connected with these third parties in their columns. For example, Cuomo and Hochul, running on the Ò Women Equality PartyÓ appeared on the Green Party column. This created much confusion and invalidated the ballot if a voter mistakenly voted for the all of the candidates in the GP column.

Although the GP candidate for Governor, Hawkins, did increase hns vote total from the the previous gubernatorial election in 2010, he was polling 9 percent just before the election but received only 5 percent of the vote, a drop of 45 percent. Cuomo who appeared on four columns was polling about the same as his vote-54 percent and Astorino who appeared on three columns was polling at 33 percent and received a vote of 41 percent. Other party vote totals such as the Libertarian and the WFP decreased markedly from the previous gubernatorial election in 2010. I believe the NYC Board of Elections violated the civil rights of those who wanted to vote for a third party by setting up a confusing ballot that suppressed their votes.

Tom Siracuse Chair of the New York County Green Party

Editorial a ‘slap in the face’ to hospice

To the News Enterprise: I was dismayed at a sentence in the Editorial Board’s piece on Death with Dignity in which it was stated that Brittany Maynard Ò read about radiation and hospice care but found both options to be even more terrifying.Ó I understood Ms. Maynard’s determination to make her own decision to end her life on her terms before she was incapacitated and debilitated by her illness.

I do not recall reading anything about her being terrified by the thought of hospice.

I have been a hospice volunteer for many years and the goal of hospice is just what Ms. Maynard wanted: itÕ s about living each day, enhancing the quality of life and preserving the dignity of the terminally ill.

I do not fault Ms. Maynard’s decision, but I find the comment in the

Valley News to be a slap in the face to the hospice movement.

I suggest your Editorial Board read a recent article in the New York Times on Oct. 5, 2014, entitled Ò The Best Possible Day.Ó In the article, Dr. Atul Gawande describes how a hospice team enabled a patient to live her last days exactly as she wanted, allowing her The Best Possible Day she could imagine.

ThatÕ s what hospice is all about and there is nothing Ò terrifyingÓ about it.

Colleen M. Van Hoven, Ph.D. Volunteer with High Peaks Hospice and Palliative Care

Loon thanks

To the News Enterprise: Biodiversity Research Institute’s Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation (www.briloon.org/adkloon) would like to thank the many sponsors, in-kind donors, and volunteers who helped make our recent Adirondack Loon Celebration a success!

No free will with tax-exempt status

To the News Enterprise: Citizens of the USA are known, world-wide, as people who donate to those in need.

In the War Revenue Act of 1917, Congress gave income taxpayers the privilege of deducting charitable contributions to nonprofits that met criteria established by the Internal Revenue Service and approved by Congress.

The intent of the law was to encourage citizens to continue to freely donate to charities. It is important to note that there is no penalty for not donating to charities or nonprofits.

Federal income tax exemptions for charitable organizations were first codified in 1894 and have been adjusted many times since.

The Code includes the criteria for an income tax exemption and certain prohibitions such as a prohibition against lobbying.

The several states adopted the income tax-exempt concept for nonprofits, but at some point, added an exemption for real estate (property) taxes.

Unlike the Federal income tax exemption, which encourages giving freely to the charities of oneÕ s choice, the real estate tax exemption forces all non-exempt land holders to pay the taxes for the nonprofits.

There is no free will.

Worse, there is a severe penalty for not Ò donatingÓ to all of the nonprofits in Essex County.

The County will take the property away from the owner and sell it.

All the talk about jobs, good deeds done by nonprofits, and so on, does not justify forcing real property owners to contribute to organizations, many of which are against their beliefs, at the point of the tax sale gun so that they can remain in the homes.

Gordon E. Howard, Keeseville

Question of the month

“If you were a turkey, what would you say to convince someone not to cook you for Thanksgiving dinner?”

Johnsburg Central School Mrs. McKenna’s 2nd grade Alesha Johnston: I would say, please help to my other turkey friends. I would also say, “don’t cook me for dinner or I will cook you one day.”

Lillian SanAntonio: I would make sure that I was hiding in the woods. If someone saw me I would say that I didn’t taste good and you wouldnÕ t want me for dinner.

Savannah Virgil: I would say I taste like rotten fish from a toilet and you would not want to eat that. That would scare them away.

Mason Englert: I would say that I didn’t taste good and that my meat is rotten.

Mackenzie Mulligan: If I were a turkey trying to convince someone not to cook me for Thanksgiving dinner, I would yell, “Help me I’m not what you think I am!!” Then I would dress up as a dog and say, “see I’m a dog.” That is how I would convince someone not to cook me for Thanksgiving dinner.

Indian Lake

Continued from page 1

Indian Lake Community Development Corporation (ILCDC) Report

Brenda Valentine, chair of the Main Street Revitalization Sub-Committee, reported on working group meetings with three consulting engineering firms. The firms have been interviewed

www.newsenterprise.org with regard to their qualifications for working on the Townsend property (on Main Street next to the Indian Lake Restaurant) development proposal. Plans are in place for the acquisition of the property and development alternatives are now becoming the focus.

The three firms participating in the working group meetings were: The Laberge Group, The LA Group and the Chasen Companies. Valentine announced that there has been a consensus that the Chasen Companies were best suited to

the needs surrounding the acquisition of the Townsend Property and the subsequent formulation of a proposal for the development of the property once acquired. Valentine requested the BoardÕ s approval to contact Chasen and request they submit a development proposal to the Town. The board unanimously approved the request. Supervisor Wells made note that he was aware that the Chasen Companies were involved in helping the Town of Newcomb on a project and everyone there seemed very pleased with the firm’s capabilities and work.

RFQ’s from Engineering Firms for Work on Abanakee Dam

Given the $750,000 provided to the town from the state as directed by Governor Andrew Cuomo, the town board has reviewed RFQÕ s from engineering firms. The dam is important to the whitewater rafting industry in that it is itÕ s opening and closing that creates the Ò bubble of waterÓ down the rivers and the gorge upon which the industry is reliant. Wells motioned that the Board approve Clough Harbour & Associates to work with the state on repairs to the Abanakee Dam. The motion was defeated by a 3-2 vote with Wells and councilwoman Sally Stanton casting the only Ò AyeÓ votes. Councilman John Valentine then moved to retain The Laberge Group as the engineering firm to work with the state on the needs of the dam. The motion was approved by the 3-2 vote. The two dissenting votes came from Wells and Stanton.

November 22, 2014 Other Business

• Wells announced that Bill Zullo has resigned as Town Historian. Wells commented on how much he will be missed and noted that he would like to do something special in recognition of ZulloÕ s many years of fine service to the community during the next board meeting in December. Wells also mentioned that there is an interested party for ZulloÕ s replacement but that announcement would be premature at this time.

•Both Wells and Valentine are drafting resolutions as input to the APA for revisions to the Land Use Master Plan. Both resolutions will be submitted for review and approval by the Town Board before anything is sent to the APA. •The board voted unanimously to approve the continuation with Cedarwood Engineering Services as the lead engineering firm on the water quality improvement project in the Hamlet of Blue Mountain Lake.

•Wells announced the receipt of the report on the Lake Adirondack Dam, noting that, Ò We must move forward on this project.Ó The next regular Indian Lake Town Board Meeting will be held on Dec. 8, 7 p.m. at the Town Hall on Pelon road.

Long Lake gives residents something to ‘wine’ about

By Maggie Morgan

maggie@denpubs.com LONG LAKE Ñ On Saturday, Nov. 22 at 8 a.m., Upstate New Yorkers will channel their inner Californian and depart on a day-long wine tour.

The trip will begin at 8 a.m. at the Geiger Arena in Long Lake, making stops in Blue Mountain Lake and Raquette Lake to pick up passengers on the way to the Thousand Islands.

The voyage to wine-country only takes a couple of hours; with other passengers to gab to about the merlot, pinot grigio, and chardonnay that awaits, the time will surely fly by.

Alex Roalsviq, Director of Tourism in Long Lake, is excited about the first ever wine tour organized by the town.

“It is a fun event for residents to get out of town and enjoy themselves before Christmas,Ó said Roalsviq.

The director credits the idea to Kat Forsell, events coordinator in Raquette Lake, that popped up last year. The brain child of Forsell has become a reality and will only cost $35 for a seat on the 28 passenger bus.

The tour will stop at three wineries, Otter Creek Winery, 1,000 Island Winery, and Coyote Moon Winery, each holding something different than the last. Ottercreek is owned and operated by Kyle Hafemann, the youngest person to ever start a New York Farm Winery.

Owner of 1,000 Island Winery, Steve Conaway, has based his tastes on inspiration from his years spent in Germany while serving in the armed forces.

Coyote Moon Vineyards, owned by the Randazzo family, are one of the most-award winning vineyards in New York State.

“In the off-season we can take advantage of these wineries that arenÕ t very far away,Ó said Roalsviq. Ò People typically do this in California and we can do it right next door with wineries in the North Country Region.Ó Participants will be required to bring lunch, money for the wine tours and a stop for dinner on the way back to Long Lake.

For more information or to buy a ticket, please call 624-3077 or visit the Thousand Islands Wine Tour Facebook page.

Dances with Bulls

A wild waste of the worse sort

I

t’s been about two weeks since I penned a column about the burgeoning Adirondack moose population. The point of my article was to raise awareness about the gradual return of a truly native species to the Adirondacks.

Although the last, legally harvested moose taken in the Adirondacks was way back in 1861, there continued to be reports of moose traveling through the region as late as the 1890Õ s.

Around the turn of the century, there were numerous attempts to reintroduce moose to the private parks of the Adirondacks.

Unfortunately, none of the efforts proved successful.

A major problem with early reintroduction efforts had to do with stress and body temperature change. Although moose are large and imposing creatures, they have delicate systems and a change of just a few degrees in body temperature can prove fatal.

In the repeated effort to restock the animals, most of the captive animals suffered from heat exhaustion in the railroad box cars that were used to transport them.

According to Gary Lee, a retired DEC Forest Ranger and moose expert from Old Forge, the Browns Tract Guides Association brought several bull and cow moose to the Adirondacks in the early 1900s.

The moose were kept in pens during the winter and released the following spring. Unfortunately the penned moose had become so familiar with their human handlers, they exhibited no fear of man and wandered into the back yards of locals seeking handouts. Local residents killed most of them within just a few miles of their release. Fortunately, similar reintroduction efforts proved successful in restoring the population of beaver and black bear.

While moose sightings continued to be reported over the the ensuing decades, the ungainly looking creatures proved unable to establish a viable population in the park until the 1980Õ s, when a large number of moose began to disperse from neighboring states and Canada to Ô greener pasturesÓ in the Park.

Throughout the 1980Õ s and well into the turn of the century, there were numerous reports of moose swimming across Lake Champlain and the St. Lawrence River.

At first, bull moose were discovered looking for love in all the wrong places, mainly in local cow pastures. However, moose eventually managed to establish a small, but viable population, and cows began to deliver calves.

While the Adirondack moose population cannot be compared with Vermont, New Hampshire or Maine herds; it continues to thrive and prosper.

Currently, the greatest threat to moose restoration is a collision with a vehicle. Over a dozen animals have been lost to the highways, including those killed during the fall rut and three more in the spring. Moose are very susceptible to heat stroke, especially if they cannot find cold water to cool them down.

The Adirondack moose population has been estimated between 750 and 1000 animals. The only population of moose living outside the Park are located near Lake Desolation, south of Great Sacandaga Lake.

However, it is not unusual for moose to wander into urban areas while seeking a mate during the breeding season.

DEC estimates there are numerous moose scattered about the region. Some of the more likely hot spots include the Chataguay Highlands, and the Moose River Plains.

Hamiliton County is considered Moose Central, as it encompasses an ideal environment for moose, with numerous ponds, lakes and bogs scattered over more than million acres of wild country.

Despite the natural odds limiting their return, the one factor that seemingly canÕ t be controlled is the illegal poaching of moose; which has occurred almost every year since moose first began to move back into the state.

shut.

According to the DEC News Release detailing the most recent incident, Ò A caretaker from the Santanoni Club contacted DEC Ray Brook Dispatch to report a dead moose on the Tahawus Road in the Town of Newcomb, Essex County.

DEC Environmental Conservation Police investigated the incident and found a female moose calf that appeared to have been shot. It weighed about 250 pounds.

DEC wildlife staff transported the carcass to the DEC Wildlife Health Laboratory in Delmar for a necropsy, which revealed the moose was killed by a shotgun slug or muzzle-loading bullet fired through its chest.

Killing a moose is a misdemeanor offense with a maximum possible penalty of $2,000 in fines and one year imprisonment.

DEC Environmental Conservation Police continue to investigate the most recent incident and anyone with information about the shooting should call the DEC Ray Brook Dispatch at 518-897-1300.

Despite the fact that the vast majority of hunters remain ethical sportsmen and women; it only takes a single incident for all hunters to be painted with the same brush.

It’s the sportsman’s responsibility to report fish and game violations. Not only are they violating the law, they are pilfering a natural resource that belongs to everyone.

Those responsible for the incident didnÕ t kill just a single moose. Tthe female calf had the potential to give birth to numerous offspring overthe span of itÕ s life.

Moose Hot Spots

Have you been looking for moose in all the wrong places?

HereÕ s a list of potential locations where moose have been observed. Warning: Do not attempt to get close to a moose. Watch from a distance. They are large, powerful animals that can cover ground very quickly. They are also very protective of their young.

1. Perkins Clearing region northwest of Speculator (Rt. 30).

(Jessup and Miami Rivers area.)

2. Moose River Plains. (Cedar River Flow to the Adirondack League Club boundary.)

3. Honnedaga Lake - West Canada Creek Area (North of Route 8, Herkimer & Hamilton County) 4. Meacham Lake to Debar Mt. in Franklin County (Rt. 30, north of McColloms) and the area just south of Upper Chateaugay Lake which according to one DEC biologist Ò probably the highest moose density in the state.Ó If you do happen to see a moose, please report your sightings to the NYSDEC, who are currently in the process of conducting a survey. The use of wildlife sightings from sportsmen and citizen scientists helps DEC biologists to understand speciesÕ distribution.

Moose sightings also help them to estimate population numbers, and understand the distribution of individuals throughout the region.

Young moose shot in Newcomb

I regret to report that an incident recently occured along the Tahawus Road near Newcomb when a dead moose calf was discovered by the caretaker of a local hunting club.

The incident follows a string of similar shootings including a yearling bull shot near North River Hill, a large bull with over 50 inch inside spread shot near Otter Brook in the Moose River Plains, a large bull with a 52 inch inside spread shot near Rockdam in the Moose River Plains, and a cow that was shot in Keene Valley.

Unfortunately, moose appear to have been shot just to prove “I shot a mooseÓ as most of animals were left to rot in the woods.

Regretably, the only outlaws ever caught and prosecuted were the individuals responsible for shooting The photo of the young moose calf provides a cow moose in evidence the recent shooting was not likely Keene Valley. due to a misidentification. It would be difficult They just couldnÕ t to argue the calf was accidently mistaken for a keep their mouths whitetail deer.

I

invented a new game last weekend I like to call dances with bulls.

Not to be confused with Kevin CostnerÕ s Dances with Wolves; or Michael JordanÕ s former basketball team the Chicago Bulls.

Nope, this match involves a long stare down with a very hostile bull moose. How it would end was up to the 1,200-pound beast charging at me through the Adirondack pucker brush.

I knew there would come a day that I’d come face-to-face with one of these long-faced, prehistoric looking gargantuans during a hunt.

With population estimates now pushing 1,000 animals, I’d seen tracks and scat left behind and even heard one crash away from me in a deer drive, like a living room sofa careening through the woodland.

I pictured such a sighting as being somewhat idyllic — a massive head emerging from a beaver pond, blinking away flies and lazily munching marsh grass as birds flitted about.

I find the reintroduction of moose here to be profoundly positive news and relish the idea of my son being able to harvest one someday in this state. I’d seen a handful of the beasts along roadsides here, and snapped photos of one in a field in Westport, but had never spotted one during a hunt.

That all changed last weekend, but the sequence of events that unfolded turned out to be anything but idyllic.

The bull I encountered was accompanied by a mature cow, who showed herself first and sauntered at me with a long striding gait. She would have run me over, had I not made a threatening move in her direction Ñ the same type of move I’ve used countless times in the past to send bears and the like scurrying. It also worked with her and she went loping over a hillside.

Problem was, she wasn’t alone. Twenty seconds later I was eye to eye with her suitor, and he wasnÕ t liking the idea of me coming between them. He closed the 80 or so yards between us so fast that I barely had time to react. Gun on my shoulder I back peddled, putting as many large trees between the two of us as possible.

And the dance was on.

Thirty yards turned into 20, and 20 into 10. I quickly came to the realization that this beast was used to being king of the jungle — and it was anything but afraid. Its ears laid back, it grunted, licked its lips and gnashed its teeth. Foam rolled from its snout as it lowered its head and stomped at the ground.

“Don’t make me” I said under my breath as it peered around the final tree between us. The animal was so close, I couldn’t even get it in the scope — instead, I held my 30-06 on my shoulder and peered down the barrel.

I didn’t dare move.

The moose swung its antlers from side to side, as if to goad me into action and stood yards away for what seemed like an eternity. I thought about a warning shot, but didn’t dare unaquire the animal for fear it would charge with the barrel of my gun trained on a tree.

One more threatening lurch in my direction, I thought, and I’ll be forced to react.

Instead, thankfully, the animal turned and slowly disappeared in the direction of its female companion, stopping occasionally to glance back in my direction.

I let out a long sigh of relief, clicked the safety on, and continued my hunt.

Later, plopped haplessly out of harmÕ s way in front of a computer monitor, research showed me that moose attacks are not as rare as one might think. In fact, 5-10 people in Alaska are wounded annually in moose attacks Ñ thatÕ s more than grizzly and black bear attacks combined.

Nevertheless, moose do not tend toward natural aggression, and most will move on without harm. The important thing to remember is that, first and foremost, moose are wild animals and will defend themselves if provoked or threatened by a human or a barking dog.

The most dangerous time for moose aggression, according to the Alaska Department of Fish & Game, occurs in September and October, during mating season and in the early spring when protective cows are guarding young calves.

How Moose Size Up In The Animal Kingdom

Will Coats, age 16, of Keeseville shows off the nice 8-pointer he dropped while hunting with his father Ed Coats in the Alleghany County town of Whitesville. Will shot the buck opening morning of the southern zone season, Nov. 15, at 10:30 a.m. It had a 19-inch inside spread. Congratulations Will!

Photo by Ed Coats

• The largest mammal in the deer family, moose are taller than a horse -- 5 to 6.5 feet tall (1.5 to 2.0 meters) from ground to shoulder.

• Heavier than a bear -- male moose, called bulls, weigh up to 1,500 pounds (680 kilograms), females are usually a few hundred pounds less.

• Faster than a kangaroo -- moose run up to 35 miles per hour (56 kilometers per hour).

• A bull moose can have antlers six feet (1.8 meters) from end to end
