YES you read correctly.
its currently illegal here is sask to hunt game with dogs,shame as dogs are bred to hunt.
so i was bored and did some digging around,to find that its not illegal in the hunting act to hunt with a CAT.

cheetahs are the fastest hunting cat,these can be bought for around $10,000
there maybe rules to owning exotic pets but one can dream anyways.
would love to see the cheetah pull down a whitetail and even better in front of a CO

found this video of hunting rabbits in the UK with one

 
If your using the cat as a hunting tool... is there a size restriction making certain cats non restricted or restricted? Also how many are you allowed to have "loaded" or running at once?
 
I had our cat sit beside me when I was sitting the blind. He kept staring in the same direction and sure enough out pops a doe.
 
Would you even need tags as the cat is only expressing it's self ?..............rights you know.Royalty is Persia hunted gazelle with cheetahs .
 
Interesting, but I would be worried about going off-leash, given both the value of the animal and the liability aspect. Also, I don't know how well a cheetah would handle cold weather.
 
When did they do away with dogs out there?

When I was living out in Saskabush, I knew a Vet in Swift that kept a pack of greyhounds that he hunted coyotes with, he'd pull along side a coyote while driving his little SUV, and once the dogs saw the Yote, he'd pop the rear hatch. He said he kept all his dogs fed on the proceeds from the hides.

My hounds bounced the odd jack or fox while we were out walking, even caught a couple jacks. All I can recall about the regs then was that the dogs could not be used for big game.

Falconry is an option too.

Had a yellow tomcat that as soon as he seen my gun he would run to my side. He would sit ten feet out in the field under me. Just like having radar. Coyote showed up he would come back to me. Anything else and he sat and waited for the shot. Was my hunting
buddy for awhile.

I was related a story a few years ago from a former Alberta CO (now a conservation enforcement instructor) of a cheetah belonging to a well known game farm keeper/naturalist being shot while running pronghorn back in the day. I am thinking it would not go over well in Alberta.

Which sucks....I would be all over it.

i have a deer x wolfhound and my RM will not allow hunting of yotes with it.
i have even been in and asked for an amendment to the RM rules,what a waste of my time and fuel.

its not encouraging at all.
why each and every RM different?
why so many rules/regs/by laws?

keep it simple and do the laws either federal or provincial FFS

if i had a spare 10k i would buy a cheetah just for the hell of it
