The annual moose hunting season began on October 1 and will end on December 30, 2018. 

A total of 184 Nisg̱a’a citizens submitted their names to be eligible to receive one of 52 bull moose permits available. 

The number of permits available was based on the 2018 Nisga’a moose allocation of 44 animals. 

If Nisga’a hunters harvest at an 80% success rate, the 52 permits issued will result in 44 moose. 

The total number of permits were split evenly and a random draw for 13 permits was conducted for each of the four communities. 

To date, the permitted harvest of six (6) moose have been reported to the Nisga’a Fisheries and Wildlife Department.
