Jackalopes are always open, but can be tough to find.

Opossum stew and bullfrog legs. Yummy. Take the CORE and buy a license. Hunt for real don't just shoot little critters for fun.

Strange that mice and rats aren't listed as schedule c. Must need a tag for them

No need for a license to hunt, stalk and trap the Snapping Beaver of the Souther Interior... They frequent sleezy bars, libraries and Tim Hortons. These critters can be very cunning, ferocious and malicious. Be farwarned...................

You don't need a licence for chupacabras either.

Didn't think that question would get too many serious responses. Worms and snails came to mind for my reply.
Atleast the worms would come in handy on the free family fishing weekend in the province each year!!!
