RatherBeFishin 86 Report post Posted August 4, 2017 Well. We had a group of 4 and we got 1 bull tag for area 13 this year ! Cannot complain with that end result. How did everyone else make out this year for tags ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the days of getting a tag alone in 13 is close to being struck with lightning twice dropping off your application in the mailbox. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buck 120 32 Report post Posted August 24, 2017 Wildlife Management Unit (WMU) 21A is located in Nipigon District. The WMU is bounded on the west by Lake Nipigon and the Nipigon River to Lake Superior, on the south by the Lake Superior coast to Schreiber point, the US border and the Pic River. The east boundary follows the Pic River, and Caramat Road to Highway 11. Highway 11 forms the north boundary of the unit to the Blackwater River near Beardmore, where the boundary folllows the Blackwater River to Lake Nipigon. WMU 21A has a total area of 18,909 km2 and is part of Cervid Ecological Zone (CEZ) B. Cervid Ecological Zone B Moose, white-tailed deer and woodland caribou live in this zone. For moose, the goal is to maintain a low to moderate density population and habitat may be managed as appropriate to achieve this. White-tailed deer are managed to maintain a low population density in this zone. A key management objective is to minimize impacts on woodland caribou populations through maintenance or restoration activities. Within caribou range, maintaining low densities of moose and deer that reflect natural ecological conditions is consistent with managing the wildlife community and current provincial caribou and moose policy direction.

firebird 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2017 Yes i have seen them, are the caribou populations that much different than 50, 100, years ago? Enough so to try and thin the moose down. I think the moose is the greater resource. The biggest competitor IMO is the deer and theres not much done in culling the deer out of the 'moose' and "caribou" areas.
