hunting with atvs in Alberta

[Denver Steve]

You cannot shoot off a ATV, unless you are disabled and have a special license to be able to do so. There is a loophole like that, but for people who are missing their legs and things like that, so they can still get around and hunt.

Hey, real hunters use horses anyway...

I'm sure a certain AB hillbilly will lend you one...

Instead of a firearm, how does one shoot game with a horse?

What does this have to do with hunting and sporting arms?

What's up with the trend of necro threads that can be answered by Google or calling a CO?

My only contribution to this thread is: I'm 68 years old and never needed an ATV.

So what did you find out on Google more than I did...it just directed me to this thread...and a call to the Ab F&G CO garnered an "I dont know the answer to that , I'll get back to you."...that was 3 weeks ago and still "crickets"....do you have anything else relevant???

I am just wondering how Fish&Wildlife can allow a person to violate federal legislation by having a loaded firearm on a motor vehicle.You can't fire the gun off of the atv until it is loaded,and the moment that you load it on the atv,you violate federal firearms legislation.Several provinces lost a court challenge to federal firearms legislation,so how can Alberta Fish&Wildlife now have the authority to overrule federal legislation?It doesn't make sense.
A bow is different,since it isn't a firearm.

It all comes down to enforcement…..

Which is why I fully support Alberta sheriffs and think the RCMP should get the boot out of AB!
