Moose Antler Shed Hunting in Ontario - How to Find Them!

[@jeffcoe1773]

probably was a puncture from another bull fighting during the rut, but you never know I guess. Found a number with similar punctures that sometimes go all the way through or crack the back side. Sometimes they even break their paddle right off in battle. Good finds!!

Someone else theorized that it might be a tine puncture as well. It's just so small and clean on the entry side... I'm not convinced. I've got several with punctures, but none punched quite like this. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Great video, love watching your moose paddle adventures!

[@UncleBucks]

Thanks!! It may not seem like it, but it takes hours and hours of time to put a video all together, then have to do it all over again when the editing program glitches out. This one certainly tested me.

Nice finds!!! I also heard that the moose are moving back south again yrs ago we had alot of moose on our land up north witch is 50 miles south of Duluth mn side we watch for sign but haven't seen any thus far.

[@UncleBucks]

Thanks! It would be great if they would repopulate further south again!

A heavy wolf population usually equates to a low population of all other game species. At least it seems to be the theme from all the wolf country YT channels that i subscribe to. It sounds like Minnesota's deer population has gotten annihilated by wolves over the past few years

[@UncleBucks]

You got that right!! There is definitely also a decline in moose where I shed hunt in Northern MN. 4 years ago I left a trail camera out for a whole year. Lots of moose pics and lots of wolf pics. Did the same thing again last year, hardly any moose or wolf pics. The unmanaged wolf population is the worst thing ever for moose and deer. Poor legislation made for way too long by clueless, wolf-loving idiots.

Are you guys guides? We want to shed hunt in Ontario!

[@UncleBucks]

@deesmith5220 We aren't. Thanks for watching!

Ontario … sure 😉… 😆

[@UncleBucks]

?

[@B.E.Outdoors-ud1te]

@@UncleBucks just busting chops- Ontario is VAST! But you are by a lake so that really narrows it down 😆

[@UncleBucks]

@B.E.Outdoors-ud1te Oh shoot! Looks like you figured out my spot then 😆

[@dillybars353]

definitely a drunk poacher pot shot such an issues up here

[@UncleBucks]

I had a feeling that poaching might be a big contributing part to why the moose population is so low there now. Lots of those newer cuts are easy for poachers and slob hunters to access with vehicles right now.
