The use of rifles in hunting is far more efficient than using a bow; it it much easier to strike and fatally wound a deer with a rifle than with a bow. As such over a set period of time more animals could be killed with a rifle than with a bow. If rifle season was as long as bow season many more deer would be bagged, which would put a strain on the deer population. Thus, bow season is longer than rifle season because rifle hunting does much more "damage" than does bow season.

Can a man kill a moose?
Only if he has a good hunting rifle, cross-bow or a bow-and-arrow and is shooting from a safe distance, or is shooting in an area where he cannot be seen by the moose. It is stupid to think a man can kill a moose with just a knife. This is because moose, no matter if it's a cow or a bull, can still rip a man apart with those sharp hooves or gore him with antlers (if it's a bull). Moose are tall animals, often standing taller than a man, not to mention they can turn on a dime faster than a man can, making it impossible to knife-kill a moose.
