Hey fellas, just wondering if there is any jack rabbit hunting around the okanagan valley. I would think there would be a bit of a population around Oliver/Osoyoos but who knows. Any help is greatly appreciative. Thanx.

I would be sure as the bag limit in the Christian Valley is 2 per day.

That is not a jack rabbit that is a cotton tail and much better eating than jack rabbit

Whitetailed Jackrabbit and Nuttall's cottontail both are protected species in BC.

Looks like the WT jack rabbits are now extirpated in BC
