white northPolar Bear Trophy Fee
How much do you think A Polar Bear Trophy fee is in Canada? I live where they are hunted,and when I found out how much it was I was shocked.
750 canadian dollars

That isn't very much when you consider that the cheapest Moose auction tag in 2009 in Vermont was more than $3000!
Who gets the trophy fee?

crbutlerI am shocked its that low. When hunters from the US were able to bring back the trophy, the prices I saw were in the $30,000 plus range for the hunt. I don't specifically recalling a trophy fee, but usually there was some weasel wording about all all taxes, fees, permits not included.

Hunts are 30000 plus, and a trophy fee of 750 above the 30,000.

Dago Redso what is the 30k going towards?
Interesting, I've always thought polar bear hunting must be real premier stuff, considering you almost never see them in collections. I did meet a guy once that had a polar bear rug in his office, I don't know if he took it or got it somewhere though.
