2. I saw his earlier n did not comment

But when I see it again, my fear is.. I hope no moron w/ a gun sees it, too. Just magnificent. I will wager our Native American friends.. if we have any.. will have something to say..

3. Although technically not blanket banned from being hunted, most hunting areas in

in Värmland, where the majority of the white älg in Sweden (only around 100 or so out of 400,000 total Swedish moose) are at, prohibit the hunting of them.

Älg is moose in Swedish. Not the same as elk, which is a different animal.

4. So, my Friend..are you saying they're respected but not protected?
