Pilots beware: Make sure you close your eyes when you spot a moose on the ground while flying
Apparently it is illegal to view a moose from an airplane… Not entirely sure why Alaskan legislature feels it necessary to make this law, but it’s there. Although I find it somewhat hard to enforce considering the size of the state and the sparseness of its population.
Related Stupid Laws, Crazy Laws, and just plain Stupid Laws:
- If you own a pool, close the pool gate or you face a large fine.
- I guess you are not allowed to give your moose skydiving lessons
- They really like their moose in Fairbanks
- It’s illegal to fly a kite 10 feet above the ground
- No flirting with your hands or eyes!

You’re apparently confusing the verb “seeing” with the verb “spotting”, the latter being part of hunting, which is illegal from an airplane.
