Species Account:
It is a yearling moose with only nubs for horns so no horns to salvage. It was the middle of the night and it was around a corner at mile marker 12 in Fremont County and we hit it with our car. It had a broken right hind leg and couldn't get up to walk. We called the police and the police report number is 2015-01170, and the police officer looked at the Moose and said he would have to put it down and he shot the moose in the back of the head as a mercy kill. We asked if we could salvage the animal for the meat and the office said we could just make sure that we filled out all of the salvage paperwork. We gutted the animal on site and took it home to butcher it and we will share it with friends and family.
