    Licenced wolf and coyote hunters and trappers now have more reasons to support wildlife research through the Newfoundland and Labrador Outfitters Association’s newly launched Canid Incentive Program. Government currently offers a $25-fee for each canid carcass submitted to the department. Starting this hunting season, the association is investing $50,000 to supplement the provincial fee through the program, which offers hunters and trappers an additional $35 for each legally harvested animal to a maximum of 1,400 registered carcasses. All canid carcasses must be submitted to a Fisheries, Forestry and Agriculture office to be tagged with a unique registration number. For more information, contact the Wildlife Division at 709-637-2025 or the Newfoundland and Labrador Outfitters Association at 709-639-5926.
