With an initial population of one Bull and One cow, Shoot either and there are no baby moose.... This chart is faulty from its conception.
Are hunters on average really this slow, that this is how ridiculously simplified (and erroneous) a concept must be to "educate" ourselves?
I have hope that most hunters realize that this chart is Fool's gold.
Moose and all wildlife management is a bit more complicated than this.

Anywhere I've hunted ungulates the male/female ratio is nowhere even close to 1/1. Unless the bull population is severely depleted, the cows still get serviced, even when they are not bred the first time they often cycle again. Take a look at how many bulls the average beef farmer keeps on hand VS his cows... this is not rocket science.
In my opinion your argument is at least as stupid as however foolish you feel that chart is.
