The Brown Gold of Sweden


Hi there! Today was a fine day in northern Sweden. I saw mother moose and her two kids and I even got some good pictures but since I'm on a 56k modem I don't feel like uploading them. I forgot to take pictures of all the moose turds I saw so I stole this picture instead. Moose turds are called the brown gold of Sweden because of the crazy Germans who are paying like $10 per ounce for this stuff. I don't know what they are doing with the turds when they get them...but I don't recommend it anyway.
A better idea might be to come here and shoot yourself a moose instead.

Hunting opportunities for foreign visitors
As almost all hunting land is already accounted for, there are few opportunities to lease shooting rights in Sweden. However, many foreign hunters are invited to enjoy "exchange hunting" in Sweden. Under this scheme a foreign hunter can invite a Swedish hunter to hunt in his own country and is invited, in return, to hunt in Sweden.Another increasingly popular option is to go hunting in Sweden as a "paying guest", and more and more landowners and hunting co-operatives offer this opportunity to both Swedish and foreign visitors.

It's nice to see that even the northern parts of our majestic country offers blogging opportunities! We should start up an "exchange blogging" program.

Poo is awesome! It makes plants grow and stuff! And it comes out of your butt! What else does that??
