Electronic moose call

[charves]

Just got a Cabelas brochure in the mail.
Is it legal to use electronic calls for big game outside of Alberta?
Seems strange they can sell them in Alberta where it's not legal to use.

[Pierre Tessier]

They are not legal for hunting but they aren't illegal to sell and own. Many places allow electronic callers, personnally for big game I wouldn't use them anyway.

You can use them for predator calling and snow geese that's about it I think.

Seen them used for moose on the Edge the other day, they were in Ont or Que I think.

We can use electronic calls for big game, prdators and snow geese ( not canada's ) in Saskatchewan. Has been legal for a long time, the only new add-on has been snow geese.

Just to clarify this a bit for people reading (and correct me if I'm wrong) but according to regs you can't even use electronic ungulate sounds for predators...

GENERAL

It is unlawful to

set out, use or employ any of the following items for the purpose of hunting any wildlife:

recorded wildlife calls or sounds, or an electronically operated calling device except; 1) when hunting migratory game birds with the use of calls or sounds that mimic snow geese, or 2) using electronic calls to hunt crows, magpies, coyote, red fox and wolf (using sounds that mimic these animals, rabbits, hares, or rodents).

I believe if you read on it clarifies more on use for predator hunting.
