Alberta to allow direct farm-to-consumer meat sales under new rules

[W921]

TB and anthrax are I believe limited to certain areas? I wouldn't be worried about this.
Just get to know the producer. Ask about drug withdrawal. Certain drugs have different withdrawal times. Ask about recent vaccines, medications and where the producer injects the animal. Most do it in the neck so look for and cvut out any scare tissue.
Young 2 yo animals are healthy. Cancer ,BSE,etc should not be an issue.
Hey if you read books by wildlife biologist on wild game like moose and all the stuff they can carry it will sicvken you from eating them. Beef should be way less risky than wild game.

Instead of hunting them make the event so you have to catch a cow moose and milk her.

I don't know if I would be selling my moose for meat. I'd be milking the moose. Cheeze made from moose milk sells for $1000 a kilo. 6 to 10 moose cows can produce 500 kilos a year.

I have been enlightened...fascinating.

Ok I have seen how people milk the cows. I have seen milking horses. I have seen milking camels. Goats. Sheeps. I have heard about milking cats(in a movie Meet the Fockers).... I have never heard about milking moose!
I HAVE TO SEE THAT!!

Have you seen pics of people riding them to school? Pulling a plow? A team of moose hitched up? They are out there!

I've read about people in northern Russia (soviet union) who years ago rode moose. I was scared to post because I didn't think anyone would believe me.

Never heard of that! But riding a raindeers in a sled- that’s normal.
