Default Supplemental WT Tags

Heard a nasty rumor that we might be losing the sup tags province wide. Usually I dismiss these types of rumors but this one can from a source that doesn't spread rumors and some fairly good contacts with the powers that be! Anyone hear anything?

Not sure about province wide but yes the supplemental tags have already been yanked from a few Eastern border and CWD control zones.

That would be excellent in the eastern zones.

Are those zones listed yet on the Alberta Relm site? If not, where can I find out?

Supplemental tags are an excellent way to bring, and keep, youth hunters involved in hunting. If there is a need for two tags, it would be for youth.

i hunt south peace country areas and the suppliment tags i don't see as a problem because the deer herd did take a hit over the last few years but there still plenty of deer around.There were a few years when the population peaked and it seems lots of guys use that as a benchmark of population but it was high. twenty years ago we would hunt around home and deer were alot more few and far between. But that just the area around where i'm at.
