It’s 1 year and likely only a half dozen animals maybe then it will be corrected next year.
The Yukon government and tourism Yukon are very careful in insuring that they don’t damage the image of any Outfitter because of closures like this.
If clients aren’t confident they will get to hunt the animals they booked they will start looking elsewhere for more stable regions.

A few animals being harvested 1 additional year does nothing to hurt the herd size, but cancelling the hunt could affect businesses long term.
