All Non-resident hunters of big game, wolf or coyote require a Big Game Designated Guide or a Hunter Host. Scroll up to view Outfitting and Guiding Requirements.
Non-residents who hunt with a Hunter Host may obtain White-tailed Deer, Antlered Mule Deer, Antlered Moose, Antlered Elk, Black Bear, Supplemental Black Bear, Cougar, and Wolf/Coyote Licences (see table below) from private licence issuers. Some special licences may be obtained through the draw system that will be described in the 2006 Alberta Hunting Draws booklet available in June 2006. Click here to view the 2006 Alberta Hunting Draws booklet.
Non-residents contracting a hunt with a Big Game Outfitter-guide may obtain Special Licences by using an allocation, available from their outfitter-guide. Wolf/Coyote licences can be purchased without an allocation. Non-residents using the services of an outfitter-guide must be guided by a Big Game Designated Guide.
