About Alaska Hunting Game:
Alaska-Yukon Moose
(Alces alces gigas)
Physical Description
The Alaska moose, like other subspecies, have bulky bodies with short,
stubby tails and a long, oblong head. Body coloration of the moose ranges
from golden brown to almost black depending upon the season and age of the
animal. The face lightens to a brown color in summer and becomes darker,
almost black in color as breeding season approaches. Moose of both sexes
have a “bell” or “dewlap,” which is the flap of skin and long hair that
hangs from the throat. The legs are lighter in color than the body.
Moose are the largest member of the deer family and the Alaska moose is the
largest moose subspecies. Male moose can grow up to seven feet tall at the
shoulders and can be 10 feet in length. Female moose grow to about three
quarters the size of bulls. Male moose have antlers that can be 60 inches or
larger in width and weigh up to 50 pounds. The antlers are shed between
November and January. Get free

Barren Ground Caribou
(Rangifer tarandus)
Physical Description
Brown hair covers the main body of the caribou in the summer with the eye
ring, rump patch, underside of the tail, and inside of the ears, feet, nose,
and areas of the flanks being white. In the winter the coat turns grayish to
almost white in color and gets thicker and longer than the summer coat. Both
sexes grow antlers standing as high as three feet or more. Fawns are brown
and unspotted. Mature caribou stand approximately four feet tall at the
shoulder. Caribou average eight feet in length. Barren Ground Caribou
can only be hunted in Alaska and some areas of Canada.

Brown/Kodiak/Grizzly Bear
(Ursus arctos)
Physical Description
Thought by many to be the “king of bears, ” this bear has a big head, small
rounded ears, and a short tail. "Griz” also have heavy sturdy bodies, strong
muscular legs, and a very distinctive muscular shoulder hump. Brown-colored
claws on the front paws, which are used to dig for food, are large strong
and slightly curved, and make them easily distinguishable from other bears.
The claws on the front paws grow to be three inches long and the claws on
the back paws grow to be 4.5 inches long. When standing on all four paws,
brown bears measure four feet tall at the shoulder and are about 6.5 to
seven feet long. They have a gait similar to that of a human being when
walking because their heels and toes make contact with the ground in a
similar manner as humans. Mature male grizzly are formidable in size,
typically weighing 350 to more than 950 pounds. Their size and weight depend
on the climatic conditions and the availability of food. A female generally
weighs one half to three-quarters as much as a male. The "king of
bears" can only be hunted in Alaska and some areas of Canada and Russia.

Dall's Sheep
(Ovis dalli dalli)
Physical Description
Dall’s sheep are pure white with amber-colored horns. Rams weigh from 160 to
242 pounds and ewes are smaller at 110 to 150 pounds; both stand 3 to 3 ˝
feet high at the shoulder. Rams and ewes both grow horns throughout their
lives, but those of the ewe are less curved, more slender and shorter (about
ten inches long) than the ram's. The horns of a ram stop growing each fall,
resulting in annual growth rings which, like tree rings, can be used to
determine the age of the ram. Adult Dall’s sheep weigh between 110 and 245
pounds. These beautiful sheep can only be hunted in Alaska and in some
areas of Canada. Get free info
