Canada offers tax breaks to promote moose sex

Ottawa — A conservation group has teamed up with the Canadian tax man to offer deductions for land donations to help lovelorn moose.

The Nature Conservancy of Canada is looking for land along the border between the country's easternmost Nova Scotia and New Brunswick provinces to create a corridor wildlife can wander through.

The hope is that New Brunswick moose will migrate to Nova Scotia to mate, since the population there is endangered.
...
The campaign was launched in 2013 under the catchy banner "The Moose Sex Project." But the corridor will likely also be used by lynx, bobcat, ducks, bears and deer.
