Jay...

There is a open season on otters in the Boreal regions of Alberta. In the parkland, foothills, alpine and sub-alpine regions there is no season.
However, otters are caught by beaver sets in the non-boreal areas and they are supposed to be delivered to ESRD.
Otters are just another invasive species.
Mind you, loons, pelicans, cormorants, herons and osprey all benefit from trout stockings. No season on those predators either.

Predators are sacred in Alberta. With few exceptions, only the prey are managed.

Nice troll!!

And bc... Each of those fish were released without ever leaving the water. Nearly no handling as barbless hooks aid release and if you did the same, maybe just maybe your kids may have some fish to catch. Clearly you have some issues with releasing fish. Meet guys like you before. Thankfully getting fewer of you. If we, and that means you as well, don't spend time looking after this provinces resources, there will be none.
