Moose Hunting

A dentist and an accountant went on a fly-in moose hunt to Canada. The pilot flew them into their hunting area and told them he would be back in 5 days to get them. The two guys spent the next 5 days hunting and managed to get 4 moose.

The pilot returned on the appointed day and, upon seeing the moose, informed the hunters that he could not fly all 4 of them out because of the weight. The hunters informed him that they got 5 moose the previous year and the pilot didn't balk on them.

Not to be outdone by their previous pilot, the pilot helped the hunters load the moose and, engine straining, managed to coax the aircraft off the ground. He was unable, though, to gain enough altitude to clear a nearby mountain range and they crashed.

Luckily, the pilot and two hunters all escaped without injury. "Where do you think we are," asked the dentist. The accountant replied, "I'm not sure, but we can't be far from where we crashed last year."

This reminds me of the two hunters who shot a deer on the first day of hunting season and was pulling the deer back to the truck by the hind legs. One hunter said, 'This would be easier if we pulled the deer by the antlers.' They did this and about thirty minutes later the other one said, 'This sure is easier, but we are sure getting a long way from the truck.'
