We had 3 antelope who enjoyed the early construction clay mounds on the Edmonton International Airport for 3 summers, just wanderers I guess. Very nice to see, no shooting there. About 2005.

I saw a herd of pronghorns just out of Lloydminster last year. I have seen pronghorn inside Camrose city limits twice in the last few years.

See them around Kindersley and Rosetown quite a bit. Definitely on the northern extent of their range.

We see them every year up to Biggar. Some big elk hanging around the area as well.

I hear the snow pack was quite deep in the Cypress hills area. Hope things are good for archery pronghorn this year.

I remember just west of Moosejaw a very substantial herd...draw system only for them....then someone had a brain fart....remove the draw system and you can buy two tags.....4 weeks later....gone.....sad..bad decision....10 years later you started seeing traces.....not sure now what the numbers are now....

My buddy lives in Saskatoon in the Montgomery area near 11th and Circle Drive and he had one lone antelope hanging around last year. The wife I took the trailer to S'toon to visit my mom (and my bro of course) and stayed at the Gordon Howe campground off 11th. Saw that antelope a couple times when jumping on Circle to go to mom's house over on the east side of the river.

Before moving here to AB in 2005 we were living on an acreage between Asquith and and Perdue. At the time I was running around central/northern SK fixing computers, printers and servers in banks. We saw plenty of antelope in the area. I saw some as far north as the North SK river near between Asquith and #16 hwy alongside #376.

I didn't see any elk myself in the area but had a hella big bull moose sleeping along the creek that ran through the back of the 80 acres we had. Also had a cow moose with a calf run right through the yard one morning.

There was a couple right in the city last summer, friend had moose, deer right in his yard consistently during the summer. Couldn't find any when out hunting though.
