Baiting Big Game

[Mumptia]

Years ago it was legal to bait deer with apples and carrots, but

besides bears, is it legal in any province to bait big game now adays?

Last time I checked it was legal to bait deer in Saskatchewan, but it is under attack due to the CWD worries. Baiting of all cervids is banned in Manitoba.

 

[marlin]

still legal in Ontario

Legal in New Brunswick as far as I know...

It is odd that we are allowed to use natural pee scents that may contain CWD prions but not food to lure them in.

Where so you think CWD came from? Baiting of big Game (except bears ) is illegal in Alberta. So is electronic calls-----Cowboy

Yes, and that's the same as calling game in as well, esp moose calling with the the "promise" of romance.

I'd consider that baiting as well.

It's all baiting and a deer won't get CWD from a sack of Taber corn.
