While hunting on Vancouver Island you will spot multiple bears most days, and on a good day you can see 8 to 10 bears or more. It is a spot-and-stalk hunt conducted as day trips by 4x4 vehicle, small boat or all terrain vehicle. Hunting is along the Island's ocean shorelines, river estauries and on the logged areas of the mountain sides.The guides work with you to judge the bears and decide which ones a taker and which ones to let grow. They set a trophy target of 18" SCI minimum skull for their hunters and many 19"+ bears are taken every season and always one or two in the 20"+ range. Bears range in true size from 6' to 7'.
Vancouver Island's black bears (Ursus americanus vancouveri) are recognized as coastal black bear by Safari Club International (SCI), distinguishing them from their mainland cousins, the continental black bear.
This hunt can also be done in the fall Sept 15th - Nov 30th.
To get there fly to Vancouver and on to Qualicum Beach on the Island.
Stay is in a very comfortable high end lodge with top quality meals.
