Deer Hunting Canada

Deer hunting in Canada is considered to be among the best in best in North America, with thousands of miles of wilderness to hunt from that is often assigned in sections to professional guide companies. Many of the deer in Canada weight in at 150-250 pounds or more for the Whitetail and are best hunted from tree stands or in some areas ground blinds. To hunt Whitetail in Manitoba, you must have obtained the appropriate license from the Manitoba Conservation Office. If you are coming from out of the country to go deer hunting in Canada you must book your hunting trip through one of the registered lodges or with an outfitter who is licensed to cater to foreign hunters. You cannot hunt if you do not take these steps, as it is the law. You must also hunt in the company of a licensed guide at all times and according to the law your guide can only take three clients at a time, if any more are in your party you will need to hire another guide. If you are a resident of Canada, deer hunting licenses can be bought in the following categories, bow, muzzleloader, shotgun/muzzleloader and general rifle. You may also be eligible for a second or third deer when the opportunity is offered. Non residents are limited to only one each of the muzzleloader, bow and rifle licenses and are not eligible for second or third deer licenses.

This applies only to Whitetail deer as the hunting mule deer is illegal. Once you have your deer hunting license in Canada and have selected the outfitter you plan to work with, get ready for the hunt you have always dreamed. Your guide will take you hunting in areas that are far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life; in fact the most of the animals in these areas may never have seen a human being and have never learned to fear people.
