Hunt Details
WOLF/COYOTE
A big plus to hunting in Manitoba is the ability to take a wolf on any open big game tag during the fall hunting seasons only. Wolf must be taken before you take your primary animal. This does not fill the tag.
TRANSPORTATION OF WILD GAME
Please ensure to bring appropriate containers for the transportation of your game home. Whether you are flying or driving, it is easy to transport your wild game home with you. You will fill out a form from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) that can be obtained from the border crossing. The USDA form along with your hunting license from Manitoba is all that is needed for the export of your wild game. We will have your wild game quartered and wrapped prior to your departure home. Most of our hunters choose to quarter/de-bone their wild game and take it home.
TAXIDERMY SERVICES
We recommend you use Boggy Creek Taxidermy of San Clara, Manitoba You can contact Mel & Shanna Nementchuk at 1-204-937-3436 (mel.nemetchuk@gmail.com) or Gates Taxidermy of Winnipeg, Manitoba.
