John Bacon Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Open season? There are some limited hunting opportunities. I am not sure about the season. I think there is a lottery to get a tag; and the tag can only be used in a limited area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farsider Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 The French river herd is not doing as well. Lost some to trains. Both herds have lost some to unreported harvest. An adjustment for some but, in the end an amazing re-introduction for the province. Cheers, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fella selling it has, in the past, had venison, elk, moose and bear jerky available. I won't buy from him, but lots of tourists do every year.
