Hunters killed 841 moose during Maine’s six-day season, down 40 from last year, according to tentative figures. Final figures were expected to change by no more than a half dozen as reports of additional kills came in from remote areas, said a spokesman for the Maine Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Department. Last year’s total was 881, two less than the record 883 shot in 1982, the year moose hunting was revived in Maine after a 45-year hiatus.
