Hello I’ve been wanting to plan a moose hunt in Quebec for a while but don’t really know where to start. I want to go before my grandpa gets to old as he still in good health and fit for full day hunts. I had an older fella tell me that he used to drive north 10 hours from Montreal and just drive until he would see a moose on crown land logging roads in the 90s. Is this type of hunting still possible as we are only 2 avid hunters.

Bonjour, je souhaite planifier une chasse à l’orignal au Québec depuis un certain temps, mais je ne sais pas vraiment où commencer. Je veux y aller avant que mon grand-père soit trop vieux, car il est encore en bonne santé et capable à chasser pour une journée complète. il y avait un monsieur qui ma dit dans les années 1990 il conduisait 10 heures nord de Montréal et il conduisait jusqu’à ce qu’il voie un orignal sur les chemins forestiers de la Couronne. Ce type de chasse est-il toujours possible?

Hello does anyone have any experience hunting small game in Quebec. I am 18 and have attempted deer hunting with no success. I want to try hunting for small game and have been looking at either ZEC Lavigne or Papineau Labelle. Is it possible to have a good hunt with only a AWD suv and no atv as I am from the Montreal region and wanted to try hunting for small game?

Bonjour, est-ce que quelqu'un a de l'expérience de chasse au petit gibier au Québec? J'ai 18 ans et j'ai tenté la chasse au chevreuil sans succès. Je veux essayer la chasse au petit gibier et j'ai regardé soit la ZEC Lavigne ou Papineau Labelle. Est-il possible d'avoir une bonne chasse avec seulement un VUS à traction intégrale et sans VTT puisque je suis de la région de Montréal et que je voulais essayer la chasse au petit gibier?

Hey everyone, I'm 20 from southern BC and I want to learn to hunt. I know literally nothing. I don't know what I would hunt even, but it would probably be something common like deer. What else is out there that is "easier" to hunt? I also know nothing about guns. I of course will be taking the course shortly, in a couple months or so. But I want to research and look into some different guns for hunting. I have a low budget, preferring to stay under $500 (I know it's quite low). I want something fairly lightweight so I can take it moto camping with me. I think I want a bolt action rifle but again, I don't know anything so I am completely open to any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Is there allot of bears surrounding Calabogie or should I try going further towards Algonquin park? I live in WMU 65, we don’t really have bears and no bear season. I like the idea of a 2h drive into crown land to catch a bear. I also would like going near a lake so I could fish midday when bears aren’t to active. Or if bears don’t show up.

Thanks

The only birds I could legally hunt right now are birds I've never heard anyone of hunting, except maybe falconners. I can't find any info on their meat. Has anyone here ever eaten one of the following?

Red-winged blackbird, American crow, European starling, house sparrow, common grackle, brown-headed cowbird

Can someone please let me know if i have to renew my gun license with a day upgrade course, I got my gun licence 30 years ago and hunted alot. but haven't hunted in 20 years, and my outdoor card still shown as a accredited hunter. thanks for any feedback

Hello I am an American student in Quebec and interested in hunting. I am technically a resident but not a citizen. What certifications/licenses do I need? Would really appreciate the advice because I am seeing mixed information online. Thanks

As the title says, i'm a beekeeper and this spring i'll have to attempt to kill at least one black bear, possibly 2.

My bees are on an organic heritage farm, that's surrounded by thousands of acres of commercial ag where the larger farmers have clearcut damn near every tree on their properties. As a result, the property my bees are on has seen an insane number of deer, coyotes and bears move into a tiny 25 acre strip of forest. Even with electric fencing, bears keep getting into my apiary and destroying hives.

It's a shotgun only zone, near Ottawa, so i'm a bit nervous about using slugs on the brute - i've chased him off a field once (like literally running a few yards behind him, screaming my head off), i'm a 250lbs man and this bear absolutely dwarfed me, even on all 4s, so i'm guessing he's 400+lbs.

I've got 12 & 20 gauges, but looking for suggestions on the best drop-him-in-his-tracks options for ammo.
I'd also love to hear ANY tips you have to ensure a successful spring hunt. Losing a hive in the spring is essentially a $2000 hit, and most bear attacks will hurt 2-4 hives.

Hey guys I really wanna go out and try my hand at waterfowl hunting and I’m not really sure what I need. Any good gear and kit suggestions and what should I be hunting? I live in southern Alberta. Thanks.

Hello guys! Does anybody know of any reputable outfitters that offer black bear hunts around the Sudbury area or environs. I live in the Sudbury area. Thanks for any suggestions.

Have some 7.62x54r soft points sitting around and think it might be fun to take the Mosin Nagant out in search of deer next fall. Has anyone hunted with one? Unfortunately don’t have the grip strength to operate the safety. Should I leave one chambered or load 5 rounds and leave the action open until ready to shoot? Perhaps the latter the chamber one when I I’m sitting and waiting or feel like somethings close?

Looking at purchasing my first hunting rifle for myself.

Looking for personal recommendations. I’m looking for something lightweight to be able to hike with, that I can load with rounds good enough for deer to moose and anything in between. Undecided but considering .308 300win mag, 30-06 or .253.

Kind of looking at the tikka t3 lite. Like that it seems to shoot well and can be customized.

Needs to be able to be left handed, and for a decent rifle and scope set up I’m thinking between $2-$3k.

Something that’s going to last that I can possibly hand down to my kids later on.

I know boars are allowed to be hunted all year, but what other animals can I hunt outside of hunting season? I am in Saskatchewan.

Hi hunters and outdoor enthusiasts! 👋

I’ve been working on an app idea called Rack-It, designed specifically for hunters who want an easy and quick way to estimate the antler score of their harvested bucks. 🦌 The primary feature of the app would allow you to upload a photo of the rack, and using AI, it would calculate an estimated Boone and Crockett/Pope and Young score—gross and net—with just a few taps.

However, I want this app to be as useful as possible for hunters. While the main feature is antler scoring, I’m curious:

• Would you use an app like this?
• What other features would you like to see?
• Would you pay for a full featured hunting app?

Some ideas I've considered include:

• A personal trophy gallery to organize and display your kills with details like score, date, and location.
• Leaderboard or competitions for your hunting group, state, or beyond.
• Manual scoring guides for those who prefer to measure themselves.
• Hunting tips, maps, or gear recommendations integrated into the app.
• Social sharing options to show off your trophies in a way that celebrates ethical hunting.

I'd love to hear your thoughts! What would make an app like this indispensable for hunters? Are there any frustrations you have with existing scoring methods or tools that we could solve?

Thanks for your input—it’ll help shape something I hope can truly serve the hunting community! 🏹🦌

Hey guys I’ve been applying for some guiding positions lately, hoping to land a position when I’m done school. I’m 26 years old. I’ve never guided before but I do have hunting experience and a little bit of experience with horses (I’ve been getting more and more practice last couple years through my father in law including packing).

Just wondering if anyone had any tips for applications or starting out as a guide

Also the weird thing I noticed was to do with hunting guide positions for all the outfits that have ads up on indeed. They all have you send your resume to the same person at a site called BeyondBorders.com

Does anyone know what’s up with that?

Title says it all. Looking to get out one last time this Saturday and I’m not really sure what the regulations are to hunt Lake Ontario. I’m looking around the Oshawa to Grafton areas.

Bonjour / Hi fellow public land hunters. I’ve been searching municipal bylaws and consulting county offices, and am trying to get a definitive answer on hunting laws within Zone 10 specifically. I’ve hunted on Zone 7 private land only, and was wondering if I’m interpreting municipal bylaws correctly.

It is my understanding that within the MRC Pontiac/Papineau region, the use of firearms is allowed only during the hunting season. I’ve consulted with subregional offices (e.g., Otter Lake) and was told that MRC and SQ laws would take precedence. This allows me to assume hunting on provincial crown lands within the region is permitted, with QC and federal hunting regulations in place.

I’ve found potential crown lands via the geospatial maps on the ministry of natural resources and forest website, including iHunter Quebec app. I’m wondering for those with experience on public land hunting in the region, if my assumptions are correct—hunting on provincial crown land is permissible during designated hunting seasons.

To be clear: I’m not asking where you hunt (that’s your secret to hold), I’m asking if it is indeed allowable to hunt on such lands and if there are any other considerations you could share. Thanks in advance.

What are the odds that a deer shot by a lead bullet would contain a high amount of lead in the rear leg?

Nursing mother here, my father gave me venison without actually knowing what it was before I ate it, I’m concerned about it due to me passing it along to my baby.

Please no harsh comments!

Can Treaty First Nations Modify their firearms to better suit their harvesting needs such as higher round capacity modifications for shotguns and long rifles

I have this mini crossbow and would love to use it to hunt grouse or even turkey. I am in Ontario. Is it legal? Would love a page reference from the handbook. Thanks!

I booked my duck hunt this year pretty late in the year and want to avoid making the same mistake when trying Turkey hunting next year. Anyone got any guide recommendations? TIA for any suggestions!

I'm based in Montreal and I've been looking for ways to push my hunting.

I have a solid deer lease in Ormstown and I get out for moose almost every year at a sepaq or outfitter.

This is great but I want to push myself more. I previously lived in Newfoundland and always heard great things about the hunting and fishing in Labrador.

I've been thinking about doing some scouting and spending a week or two in Northeastern Quebec near the Labrador border. I'd be able to hunt as a "resident" but get away from hunting pressure around the cities and hunt some crown land.

HAs anyone hunted this area? Any stories or insights?

Hey Everyone! So this last season was my (m35) first time ever hunting. I was only able to make it out for two days due to work and family obligations but I had a friend invite me to his camp to show me the ropes. Unfortunately I didn’t get anything but I saw some does and had a great time nonetheless.

Next year I was able to get the full second week of rifle hunting off and am looking to do a week with two cousins of mine. One has been a pretty avid hunter most of his life and the other is new to the game like me. None of us have property to hunt. I recently moved to the Ottawa area and they both live around Kingston so we’re looking for somewhere relatively close for us all to go.

Originally we were going to do a moose hunting trip out east but the cost of outfitters made us postpone that for a year or two. In lieu of that we decided to stay somewhat local and do a deer hunt together.

Does anyone have some suggestions on how we could find some spots in advance to hunt when the time comes? I was thinking of scoping out Marlborough forest as well as Larose and maybe we could rent an RV to use as a base of operations for the week? We’d also be open to renting a cabin/camp with some land off of someone for a week but have been unable to find anything like that. What would you guys do? Thanks in advance!

Hey I’m new to the sport and I’m starting with a bow I’m look for friends that I could meet up with and hunt in the oncoming seasons and also learn from and practice with anything helps I’m located in Toronto

Hello everyone,
