Looking at the soft eyes of a curious moose poking around in the snow near your ski chalet, you might be tempted to try and help by putting out some food to help it through the winter. However, experts are warning kind-hearted individuals that hand-feeding animals can have severe consequences, for you and for them.
Speaking to Alaska News Source, wildlife biologist Cory Stantorf of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game explained that trying to help moose is both dangerous and illegal.
