Ontario is the top Black Bear hunting destination in the world and we are fortunate to have one of the very best Bear Management Areas in the province.
The terrain in our BMA (Bear Management Area) is ideal for Black Bears to prosper. Overgrowth of softwood and grasses, logged areas and natural clear areas are all prime areas where Raspberries grow in great abundance. The many rocky outcroppings of Canadian Shield Rock covered with mosses are prime areas for Blueberries to grow. These fruits are very important for a balanced diet that the bears need from the time they are cubs until they reach maturity in order to be healthy, strong and grow big. Their diets are also supplemented with the high amounts of small game in the area. Since the fall of the fur trade, the beaver population is way up and they are easy prey for bears, thus meat is always available. The high population of Whitetail Deer and Moose also makes the bear's predation successful. The bears will take Moose calves and fawns when ever available. They also prey on older sick animals.
Our bear hunting guests enjoy a 100% sighting and have the confidence to pass on smaller bears to wait for the big old males. We only take a limited amount of hunters each fall to prevent over-harvesting and maintain the unbelievable bear hunting. As a result of our conservation efforts, there is a 2 to 8 year waiting list to hunt our BMA. We understand it's hard to plan years ahead of time so we make things a little easier and do not require a reservation until 9 months prior. The important thing is to get your name on the list.
Includes:
Cabin for the week, fully equipped for housekeeping, Pre-baited stands, Orientation on hunting area, Retrieval and skinning assistance and Freezer service. We also include a boat, motor & gas as most all our hunters have three to four days to fish after their hunt in over. The hunter can bring any non-restricted firearm but all the stands and baits are set up with the archer in mind.
