Estonia – Moose

The most treasured hunting game in Estonia throughout the times. Elks weighing more than half ton were taken in these lands. Every year about one third of the Elk population is hunted, but despite this population is not decreasing as the growth of the population is also about 30% per year. Grown-up specimens weigh about 300–500 kg on average. Moose can be hunted using “calling” or “stalking” methods. In the beginning of the mating season hunting through the “calling method” when imitating the voice of the male is very interesting.
