At one time in Alaska, it was illegal to watch what from an airplane.?
- A moose
- A tree

- A mayor
- Another plane
Correct Answer

A. A moose

Explanation

In Alaska, it was illegal to watch a moose from an airplane. This law was likely put in place to prevent disturbance or harm to the wildlife. Watching a moose from an airplane could potentially disrupt their natural behavior or cause them to flee, which could be detrimental to their survival in the harsh Alaskan environment. Therefore, to protect the moose population, this law was enforced to discourage people from observing them from the air.
