Hunting Canada's exotic game

[Seabass]

Well maybe not exotic but uncommon anyway. What I'm refering to is the animals of the north, far north. Polar bear, Walrus, and Muskox. I wouldn't want to hunt Polar bears or Walrus, but Muskox I think would be neat. Are these animals protected or are tags and or lehs avalble? Anyone know how muskox meat is? How does one go about finding these things out?

Cheers

Seabass.....I know you can hunt MuskOx, but I would go on to the provincial gov't websites for the Yukon, NWT and Nunavut to see what you may be able to find out.

The meat.....I had it years ago at a Sportsman's dinner in Winnipeg, but I can't quite recall how it was.

... exotic game! Now we're talkin'!

Muskox tastes great! There is a meat shop here in Langley (Heratige Meats) that brings it in sometimes. I've bought a few steaks and would rate it right up with elk in taste / tenderness.

Holy crap!!!

[fester]

a polar bear hunt is on average $20000-25000 US you can arrive at the hunting camp by snow machine but the hunt must be performed by dog sled

I'd love to go on a Musk Ox hunt. That'd be very cool. BUT the $$$$$ probably very high. So i'll stick to more common game till I make a sack load of cash.
