I dunno maybe I'm an ignorant wanker too ( bet many will nod their head in acknowledgement when the read that ! ) but I also don't get the sport of hunting too.
No offense intended, but there's not much in the way of hunting around your neighborhood so it's not like you could relate. In North America hunting is both practical for providing food for one's family and for controlling the populations of various animals. By managing those populations over the past 100 years or so we've used sport hunting as a tool to reduce the cycles of famine among wild animals and we've also used managed sport hunting (counter-intuitively to you, most likely) to protect many endangered species from extinction.
In this case if a
genuinely albino critter was legally hunted for sport and in terms of genetics the hunters helped to improve the genetic stock given that albinism is not a positive trait in any population. However, if the moose was white and not an albino then it's probably just a recessive trait that will show up again in future generations of moose. Meaning that it's nothing to worry about.
As to the feelings of the local tribes about white animals it'd be nice if they joined the 21st Century with the rest of us and stopped worshipping animals as if it were still the frickin'
Stone Age.
