Under the Iditarod’s rules, a musher who kills a game animal in defense of their team is required to dress it before they can continue down the trail.

Five-time champion Dallas Seavey drives his dog team across Long Lake during the Iditarod restart in Willow on Sunday, March 3, 2024.

The incident happened on a portion of the race route between the Skwentna and Finger Lake checkpoints. “The Alaska troopers have been notified, the meat will be salvaged,” Lee said in a video. “The moose is lying in the trail, some of the other mushers have had to go over it like a snow drift.” “It’s dead in the middle of the trail,” Drobny told a race checker in a video of her arrival. “My team went up and over it, it’s that in the middle of the trail.”
