Big Game Hunting
Retrieval and Wastage of Game
A hunter who kills or injures a big game animal must make every
reasonable effort to retrieve it. It is illegal to abandon or
spoil the meat of a deer, elk, moose or caribou. If a wounded
animal enters an area where hunter access is restricted, contact
the local authority (landowner, federal Park Warden) or a Natural
Resource Officer before entry into the area.
During a season with a bag limit restricted to male animals only, the antlers or reproductive organs must accompany any big game animal taken.
During a season with a bag limit restricted to antlerless animals only, this includes animals with antlers that are 4 inches (10 cn.) or less, the following must accompany any big game animal taken:
- the head or reproductive organs, in the case of a female animal;
- the antlers, in the case of a male animal.
