There are minimal quota changes for the season which is mapped out in the 2025-26 Hunting and Trapping Guide.
As applications for this year’s big game hunt have opened, Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture Minister Gerry Byrne says the current population trends for most game and furbearer species are stable. There are minimal quota changes for the season which is mapped out in the 2025-26 Hunting and Trapping Guide. Byrne says thanks to the success of the recent Grey Island caribou relocation program, the season is being extended. The fall black bear season on the Island is also being extended to include re-structured management areas to allow more hunter opportunities. A new trapper’s beaver licence will permit trapping in unoccupied traplines – but will not affect traplines currently assigned to trappers and vacant traplines with waitlists.
