I’ve been to Africa three times, killed 17 animal, all archery.
I’ve hunted Alaska for moose, brown, and black bear.
No shot at a moose, got a brown and black bear, and an incidental wolf, all archery.

All in, except taxidermy, the four trips to Alaska that produced three kills, was more expensive than the three African trips that produced 17 animals.
The remoteness of game, float planes, remote camps etc do make Alaska more expensive. I’d like to go back for a moose, but at $25 grand or more all in, it ain’t happening.
