Two Big
Ears
"It was in the fall of 1980 when Leo
and I went to check our net across theYukon at the mouth of Owl
Slough. It was getting dark and I was getting bored just sitting in
the boat watching Leo pull in the net to take fish out of it. I
wanted to see a lot more in the country than just fish. I wanted to
see more than just the whitefish and all the cohos we were catching.
Then I looked over towards the land. Among the willows I saw two big
ears, but I couldn't see anything else. Soon, though, I saw the legs
and, finally, when I looked in between the legs and the ears, I saw a
moose body. It was a cow with two calves. To me they all looked like
wolves because of the legs. I turned to Leo and asked him if he could
see them, but he thought that I was talking about the fish. When I
said, "NO, those things on the land!" he dropped what he was doing
and started hollering at me to give him his shells. Of course, I was
handing him the wrong type of shells. After all, I was just as
excited as he was. Anyway, the three moose took off, but just before
they reached the other side of the slough, Leo shot the cow, then the
two calves which were already pretty big. Then we went home to get
more help and to get Leo's hunting knife. But, you know, after that
I. couldn't bear to eat moose meat because I thought too much of how
I had seen the moose die."
