Appears everywhere you look in Canada there closing the caribou hunting access. Green river ad leaf river heard closed, newfy extremely limited, Nuvato closing. Wow... will we ever remember the taste of Caribou?

Hopefully they can figure out what's going on and populations rebound someday. It would be a shame for the next generation to not be able to enjoy them too

Total BS that outfitters are still hunting and residents are not. Every job has periods of layoff's , outfitting should be no diferent.

Until Wildlife Officers/Bio's get a handle on the wolf populations caribou will continue on a never ending downward spiral.

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.

Is there that many stable herds left?
My guides in bc said they see less and less
Yukon shutting down.
Nwt already shut down
I’m sure glad I got a good one last year
