Antler hunting and selling is a big business up here. Nice fresh moose and caribou antler wholesales at about $6/# last I knew. I sold a huge pair of caribou sheds one year for $125. The main beams were the biggest I have ever seen anywhere. I made a months wages selling a 6ft-long mammoth tusk that was in excellent condition and which I found while prospecting north of Nome some years back. I know of places where there are thousands of pounds of mammoth tusks piled in the bushes at remote placer gold mines, all pretty much disintegrated and shelled up though so with little value, unfortunately.
