Big Game Hunting Season Open

It's the first day of the annual big game hunting season in central and western regions of the island and Labrador. The eastern region big game season will open on October 4th, while small game and trapping will open in the coming weeks.



Sunday hunting is permitted between October 5th and April 30th in all areas, if hunters have a valid licence and the season for the game being hunted is open. New hunters interested in the big game licence draw for 2015 must complete the Firearms Safety/Hunter Education Course by November 30th of this year.

Information on hunting season and bag limits is subject to change from year to year, and all hunters and trappers are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the information contained in the new Hunting and Trapping Guide.
