The following is meant solely to help the reader understand the main features of primary regulations governing this activity, and not meant in any way to provide a legal interpretation.
Wildlife Act:
The Wildlife Act regulates the harvesting, possession, transport, import and export of wildlife. A permit is required for eggs of wildlife species including fish, wildlife or parts of them. This includes, raptors, threatened and endangered species, game vertebrates and fish.
Permits are also required for the possession of and/or trafficking in wildlife species.
Wildlife pelts or parts, except meat, may be sold without a permit when the animal was lawfully taken under a hunting or trapping licence. In some cases a royalty may be required to be paid to the provincial government.
