This permit is a premier, unique opportunity to hunt your choice of one of four subspecies of wild sheep in British Columbia; Dall's, Stone’s, California or Rocky Mountain. Within the past decade Dall’s sheep scoring in the 170’s; Stone’s in the 180’s; California Bighorns in the 190’s; and Rocky Mountain Bighorns to almost 200 Boone & Crockett points, have been harvested.
The permit will be valid on any Crown land or private land (with owner’s permission) that has a legal sheep hunting season for 2021-22. The permit will be valid during the regular hunting season and include an extended opportunity to hunt for California or Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep until December 20, 2021, approximately 1 month past the end of the latest hunting season for bighorns. If the species of choice is a Dall’s or Stone’s thinhorn sheep, the permit will be valid from July 11, 2021 (an additional period of 21 days prior to the opening of the regular hunting season for thinhorns), through to March 31, 2022. This exclusive extended season opportunity will only be available to the purchaser of this permit application, one BC resident hunter, and for this season due to the 2019-20 COVID-19 federal border travel restrictions, the 2020-21 Mountain Sheep Special Hunting Permit holder.
The permit is valid for any male sheep. The permit holder is required to purchase a hunting and species license in order to hunt under the Mountain Sheep Special Hunting Permit (the “Special Hunting Permit”). A sheep harvested under this permit is in addition to any applicable provincial bag limit for sheep, however, the permit holder may only hold one uncancelled sheep species license at one time. If the permit holder wants to hunt under the normal provincial hunting regulations, they may do so in the same region or a different region as the Special Hunting Permit hunt.
If the permit holder is a non-resident of BC, or non-resident alien, he/she is required to use the services of a licensed guide-outfitter in the area in which they choose to hunt. Representatives of the Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development and the Guide Outfitters Association of British Columbia will be available to assist and answer questions regarding this permit. Guiding fees are negotiated between the permit holder and the guide outfitter and are in addition to the bid price for the Special Hunting Permit.
Please note that the completed Special Hunting Permit application form MUST be received by the Director of Wildlife & Habitat Branch, Victoria, BC, no later than 30 calendar days from the date of purchase AND, the permit will be non-transferable. In the event the permit holder does not, or cannot hunt in 2021-22, there will be no refund of the bid price. Hunters must be able to comply with interprovincial and international quarantine laws, should they be in place, at the time of the hunt.
Proceeds raised through the sale of this permit to date, have enabled the Province of BC and the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation to approve funding in excess of $3,833,606, to projects benefitting BC’s wild sheep and other wildlife conservation efforts in BC.
