For 2021 the MNR proposes a new selective harvest approach. Tags issued for bulls, cow/calf and calf tags with specific calf tag quotas across the province. A person who hunts by himself is now not able to hunt if he doesn’t get a tag. A group of three or more hunters who don’t get a tag will not be able to hunt. So a lot of hunters will not be able to hunt while natives, metis and predators continue to enjoy hunting moose. What wrong here with this picture! Discrimination or what? Totally against this. Many moose hunters will not be happy.
Survey results for eliminating the calf harvest are 41%. 41% oppose and 15% neutral. I would say the no's win. No to eliminating the calf harvest.

Disgruntled moose hunters have given up. Since 2001 there are 20% less moose hunters today.
In 1983 with effective predator control in place the moose population peaked at 114,000. In 2018 there were only 9,483 tags versus 17,672 tags in 2001.

Mandatory reporting for moose hunters and nothing for natives and metis. Really. What’s wrong with this picture. Somebody needs to address this. Native bands should be allocated tags and dispersed one person per family.
Otherwise open the hunt to everyone. See who comes running then. Somebody needs to take the bull by the horns!
