Here's why:
* No central record-keeping: There is no official organization that tracks and validates moose hunting records in Newfoundland.
* Variability in measurement: Even if records were kept, there would be no standardized method for measuring moose. Some people might measure antler spread, while others might measure the total weight or height.
* Privacy concerns: Hunters may not want to publicly disclose the size of the moose they have shot.
While there may be local stories and unofficial records, it's impossible to definitively say what the largest moose ever shot in Newfoundland was.
