That’s easy

You can hunt 4 species of sheep. Cali’s Rocky’s stone’s and in the far north dall
Lots of opportunities for trophy elk and moose
You can hunt caribou also
Mountain goats are plentiful
For deer you have whitetail, mule, black tail and even island deer
You could hunt grizzlys just a couple years ago, and they are fighting to get their hunt opened again.


The only otc tags available in Alberta are whitetail deer, elk, black bear
And for now, bighorn sheep
Everything else is limited entry
Tags like antelope are mismanaged
Mule deer are culled in the name of cwd
Mountain goats haven’t increased
Elk situation around Suffield was totally mismanaged
Moose might be holding but they took away the archery general opportunity

The point is, if you think our wildlife is being managed well your mistaken
Alberta used to be a great place for hunting
Now it’s in middle of the pack
