Game Species

Hunting

Alberta offers some of the finest hunting opportunities in the world. The province boasts eight big game species – bighorn sheep, mountain goats, black bears, cougars, elk, moose, white-tailed deer and pronghorn antelope – as well as numerous upland game bird species, ducks and geese. Whether you're goose hunting in the Peace Country, waterfowling among the potholes of the Aspen Parkland or pursuing that elusive white-tail you've always dreamed of, Alberta’s game species offer infinite challenges, immense rewards and the opportunity to explore a wide range of hunting techniques.

Some of the largest trophies in North America have been taken in Alberta, earning the province a reputation for being a hunter's paradise.
