A Chinese person's experience hunting moose in Ontario, Canada

In the first week of the 2008 moose hunting season in Canada, our group of six, including three compatriots (two from Hong Kong), and three foreigners, set out with a large amount of tactical supplies, camping and cooking gear, and all-terrain tactical vehicles to an operation area over 200 kilometers away: a hilly crown land north of the hometown of Comrade Bethune. Upon entering the operation area, we first set up camp, started cooking, pitched our tents, chopped wood, and lit a campfire.

This area is a controlled hunting zone where even the quota for male moose must be determined by a lottery conducted by the government's natural resources department. A few locals from nearby towns who didn't win the quota also requested to join our group. The operation plan was that the locals familiar with the terrain would drive the moose from the other side of the mountain while we set up an ambush along the logging trail in a skirmish line on this side of the mountain.
