On a related note, anyone who wants to hunt caribou should do it sooner than later. The more-equals are pushing pretty hard to have licensed hunting shut down all across the north. Already happened in the Yukon (see the finlayson cancellation story)
Also please be aware that not all mountain caribou hunts are created equally now either. Lots of areas have had their numbers go way down. Still a few good places to hunt in the Yukon and northern BC.
Our first Caribou hunt this year the hunter saw over a hundred cows and 28 bulls, unfortunately he never did find the bull he was looking for.
Hunter number two tagged out on a great bull 2 hours into day one. One more caribou hunter to go, hopefully they can find another stud bull.
