When the CO asked you if you completed it and mailed it in you should have said "Yes". That is your own fault, you do realize it could have got lost in the mail...

great i idea if that 180 went to conservation of moose population but it wont ,just like every dime we pay on licenses it goes into one big pot and who knows what we are paying for.i think the whole thing is about generating revenue.and yes i did all mine on line but had a fellow tell me he had to hand his in early as well

Encouraging people to Lie to a CO is probably not the best advice you could give...

Too bad you didn't get a moose.

I filled in my Bear report last night & will be sending it in with the teeth today well ahead of the deadline.

I sent in Bear teeth last season & never got the crest or a report about my Bear. I included a note in there that if we go through the trouble of submitting the teeth the least they could do is send me the patch & info about my bear...

In most WMU moose is a survey and not a mandatory report like for wolf and bear. Years ago, I forgot to complet the wolf report, they sent me a new one by mail with a note.

And I agree with you, if it's mandatory so have to do their job, they should includ a stamp. Last time I had to use their online report it was broken!

[MikePal]

mandatory..you agree to it when you buy a tag...if you can't afford the $0.85 cents then you really can't afford the tag let alone the $180 fine.

The OP has owned up...good for him and we all got the benefit from this thread to remind us of our obligations.

the argument of an extra .85cents isn't the point! Our government should be inclusive if they want to promote an initiative such as a mandatory report. I do not remember seeing anywhere in the regulations that a specified fine of $180 is to be issued if you don't report.

I don't know why it is not Clearly stated, if you are hunting for these specific animals and don't submit the mandatory questionnaire that has paid postage envelope you will be fined X amount of dollars.
