!

I am pleased to present the Saskatchewan Hunters' and Trappers' Guide for the 2013/14 season. Information in the guide is intended to keep you informed about changes in wildlife programs and services and to assist in planning your annual hunting and trapping activities.

Saskatchewan's varied and abundant hunting opportunities provide a quality experience for many thousands of outdoor enthusiasts. Hunting and trapping continue to play an important role in our growing provincial economy. I encourage all hunters and trappers to take an active part in the wise use and management of the province's wildlife resources.

You will notice a few changes in the format of this year's guide. These changes are intended to make the guide easier to handle, simpler to use and more durable.

As many of you know, the province has moved to an automated hunting and angling licensing system. This automated service provides greater convenience. In addition to buying licences from an issuer, hunters can buy online at home or order by phone. You will need to pick up a convenience pack of seals at ministry/select provincial park offices or licence issuers in order to complete most hunting licence transactions at home.

I wish you many enjoyable and successful hunting and trapping excursions during the upcoming season. I encourage you to learn more about Saskatchewan wildlife resources and services by visiting our website at http://www.environment.gov.sk.ca/.

2013/14 Saskatchewan Hunters' and Trappers' Guide

The Hunters' and Trappers' guide is available annually from the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment to provide an up-to-date synopsis of the bag limits, season dates, wildlife management zones, regulations, new programs and other relevant information of interest to hunters and trappers. This synopsis is neither a legal document nor a complete summary of the current rules and regulations that pertain to hunting and trapping in Saskatchewan and is intended to act as a general reference only. Complete copies of The Wildlife Act, 1998 and The Wildlife Regulations, 1991 are available in print and electronic form from the Saskatchewan Queen's Printer at http://www.qp.gov.sk.ca/.

The annual Hunters' and Trappers' Guide is available online in July and in print in early August from all ministry offices and private licence issuers.

Remember this Hunters and Trappers Guide is current for the 2014 spring bear, snow goose and trapping seasons. Please retain this document as a valuable reference throughout the year.

Whether you are new to hunting and trapping in the province or are a longtime outdoor enthusiast, the answer to your question is likely contained in the following pages.

3New opportunities for Farmland Moose Moose populations in farmland Saskatchewan continue to be high and quotas will increase by 875 licences above 2012 levels. First time either-sex moose hunting opportunities will be offered in zones 2, 5, 15, 16, 51, 52 and Buckland-Prince Albert Wildlife Management Zone. There will be new antlerless moose quotas in zones 6A, 8A/11A, 36A and 40A. Quotas in the remaining farmland zones have been adjusted to balance population levels with occurrences of moose/human interactions.

New opportunities for ElkIn some areas of the province elk populations are above long term objectives. In response wildlife managers have increased regular season antlerless opportunities. A regular 'antlerless elk only' season will be offered within the boundaries of Moose Mountain Provincial Park (not including zone 33) with extended season dates. Changes to the regular elk season in east central Saskatchewan will mean hunters will be able to hunt either-sex elk throughout the entire season in zones 48, 49, 56, 57, 58 and 59.

Draw antlerless elk quotas have also been increased (556 more than 2012) and first time hunts will be offered in zones 5A, 9/10(A), combined zone 28/45E(A) and 46(A).

White-tailed DeerSaskatchewan resident white-tailed deer opportunities will be unchanged for 2013. Open seasons for antlerless white-tailed deer will be offered in wildlife management zones 47, 54, 55 as well as the city zones of Regina/Moose Jaw, Saskatoon and Buckland-Prince Albert.

Changes have been made to the Canadian resident white-tailed deer licensing process. Canadian residents interested in hunting white-tailed deer in the province were required to apply for a quota-based draw. This draw placed applicants in two priority pools; the first pool consists of hunters who have a family member who is a resident of the province, the second pool contains all other applicants.

NEW!WHAT'S NEW FOR 2013

4Mule DeerMule deer quotas remain similar to last year, with some increases in areas with depredation concerns. Hunters are reminded to confirm that an archery mule deer season is in place for their hunting area.

Pronghorn AntelopePronghorn antelope in the province are at the very northern limit of their range and can be susceptible to high levels of winter mortality. Two of the past three winters have been very difficult for pronghorns. Therefore, the season will remain closed for 2013.

Upland Game BirdDue to concerns about upland bird populations, the ministry has reduced limits for sharp-tailed grouse and ring-necked pheasants from three birds daily to two birds daily with four birds allowed in possession. Hungarian partridge possession limits have been lowered from three times the daily limit to twice the daily limit.

Waterfowler Heritage DaysSaskatchewan is adopting Waterfowler Heritage Days which allow a youth under 18 years of age to hunt without a federal migratory bird licence when accompanied by a licensed adult. The days designated will be the Labour Day weekend (on or after September 1) and the Thanksgiving weekend. This opportunity will provide young people with the chance to practice hunting and outdoor skills, learn about wildlife conservation, and reinforce safety training in a structured, supervised environment. Youth hunters will still require a Saskatchewan game bird licence (available as part of the Youth Game Licence) and must have graduated from a Firearm Safety/Hunter Education Course.

WHAT'S NEW FOR 2013 - continued

5Big Game Transport Permit no longer requiredHunters who divide their meat and transport it to separate locations withinthe province are no longer required to obtain a permit. Instead, thesuccessful hunter must provide documentation indicating his or her name,signature, licence number, species of game and date of harvest. Anyindividual possessing the unprocessed meat must have this informationreadily available to an enforcement officer.

New Tagging RequirementsA significant change is that there are no longer different seals for different species. This is part of the changes introduced with the automated licensing system. The seal or tag included with a big game hunting licence has changed. Hunters will notice that the seal is still the familiar three-part, antler (head), hide and meat seal, however, it no longer contains an adhesive. Hunters are asked to attach the tags using a string or plastic tie which they supply. All seals are the same colour and design. When a big game licence is purchased, a seal is registered with that licence and the hunter is asked to record: the species for which the seal is valid; licence number; year; and signature on the seal. This will ensure that when a hunter is tagging an animal the correct seal is used. Please see page six for detailed instruction on the use of the new seal.

Guided Bear and White-tailed Deer LicenceThe non-resident white-tailed deer and non-resident bear licence have beenchanged to a regular guided licence. This change will allow both Canadian resident and non-resident hunters to participate in an outfitted hunting opportunity. The guided white-tailed deer licence is available to Canadian residents who choose not to participate or were unsuccessful in the draw. Refer to pages 10 and 11.

Harvest LedgerThe Harvest Ledger is a new licence document which will be used to track harvest of species which have a season or quota limit. Canadian and non-resident game bird hunters will no longer be required to tag their game birds. Instead, the hunter must record the date each game bird was taken. This ledger must be kept up to date, remain in the hunters possession and will be used to track the hunters seasonal harvest.

NEW REGULATIONS FOR 2013

The automated licensing system uses a newly designed generic tag. There are no longer separate seals for each species and licence type. All seals are three-part, pre-numbered and orange in colour. When a big game licence is purchased, a blank seal will be registered with that licence. The serial number of the tag will be printed on the licence. Once the generic seal is registered with the licence, it becomes a species-specific seal matching the species-specific licence. Hunters will be required to write the year, species, licence number and sign the seal in the spaces provided. New - Convenience Pack ProcessTo purchase a regular or big game draw licence online using a personal computer, you need to first visit a licence issuer or ministry/select provincial park office to obtain a new convenience pack. A free convenience pack contains six unregistered seals that have no expiry date. Once you have purchased your licence online and registered a seal from a convenience pack, you are now able to hunt.

Procedure When Tagging an Animal! Each part of the three-part seal must be separated; the day, month and

year notched; and the seal secured to the animal immediately after the animal is killed, as per instruction on the reverse side of the seal. Note: the antler (head) seal is now required for all big game animals except bears.! Fold each seal in half with the signature/licence number facing outwards.! Insert a string or plastic seal through both pre-punched holes in the seal

and;CAttach the meat seal to any tendon of the hind leg or through the rib

cageCAttach the hide seal to any part of the hideCAttach the head (antler) seal to one antler of a buck/bull or secure it

to the ear of an antlerless animal. This seal must remain attached until March 31 of the year following harvest of the animal.! Heads or antlers that are exported must have the antler (head) seal

attached to the antler.! Moose and elk hides may be left in the field in Zones 56 to 76 only. The

hide seal must remain attached to the hide at the kill site.

Important: all hunting licences including seals continue to be available from private issuers and ministry/select provincial park offices.

AUTOMATED HUNTING, ANGLING AND TRAPPING LICENSING (HAL)

A significant change for 2013 is the implementation of the automated hunting, trapping and angling licensing (HAL) system. Obtaining your hunting and angling licences will now be easier and more efficient with more ways to purchase licences including: private issuers; ministry and select provincial park offices; online through your personal computer; or ordered over the phone.

Over the last several years, the ministry has consulted with many hunters, anglers, trappers and issuers, and has heard that the manual, paper-based system was outdated and needed to be modernized. It was costly to administer for both the licence issuers and the ministry, and it did not meet the ministry's management needs. The new system requires you to set up a free account the first time you apply for an angling licence, the big game draw or hunting or trapping licence. Once registered, future transactions are very simple and fast requiring only one of your identification numbers to access your account. The system will then offer you the licences available to you based on your residency. It will also offer any big game draw licences that you have been successfully drawn for.

Your initial registration will require your name (exactly as it appears on your valid Saskatchewan Health Services Card), your date of birth, gender, address and a secondary piece of identification. Many people use their Drivers Licence for this purpose. However, you can register with identification such as your Firearms Licence, Passport, Firearm Safety or any other personal numbered piece of identification that you normally carry with you. The system does assign you a HAL Identification Number (ID) but will also allow you to access your account by using the previously chosen piece of identification. You are not required to remember or produce your HAL ID for future transactions if you use your secondary identification.

Once you access your account at a ministry office, private licence issuer, by phone or over the internet, you simply select a licence you wish to purchase and make your payment. All hunting licences you purchase will be printed on a single 8.5 X 11 sheet of paper. Remember, a printer is required to print the licence if purchased via the self-serve internet channel. Licence fees have not increased and the allocation of 30 per cent of licence revenue to the Fish and Wildlife Development Fund will be retained.

NEW!

There are numerous advantages to this new service:

?A client has the option of 24 hour at-home online licence purchase availability.

?The system will reduce administration time and costs for issuers and simplify the process.

?Out-of-province clients will have the option to purchase a big game or game bird licence prior to arriving in the province by phone at 1-855-848-4773 (8:00 am - 9:00 pm).

?Saskatchewan clients who are a considerable distance from a licence issuer will no longer have to incur the expense necessary to drive to purchase a big game licence if they have already obtained a convenience package (see page 6).

?The ministry will have up-to-date data that can inform resource management decisions and improve compliance activities.

?Access to real time licence information will provide a more current understanding of hunter/angler activity and demographics with potential for new or enhanced marketing opportunities.

!Remember, you only require one HAL account for hunting, angling and big game draw licences. Your HAL ID is your permanent, unique number so protect it!

GENERAL INFORMATION

Wildlife ResearchThe ministry, in co-operation with its partners at the University of Saskatchewan, is currently researching the seasonal activities, habitat preferences and travel patterns of mule deer, moose and white-tailed deer. A number of animals have been fitted with radio collars in order to track their movements.We ask that hunters refrain from shooting these animals when in the field and to report all sightings, colour of the collar and any visible markings on the collar to your nearest Ministry of Environment office. If an animal is accidentally shot, please report it immediately to your nearest conservation officer. The knowledge gained from these collared animals will greatly aid us in managing our resource.Banded WaterfowlHunters who shoot banded waterfowl should report the band number and harvest information by one of the following methods:Toll free: 1-800-327-BAND (2263) Mail: Bird Banding OfficeWebsite: Canadian Wildlife ServiceEmail: BBO Environment Canada
