Newfoundland Moose & Caribou Hunts

NEWFOUNDLAND · A SNEAK PEEK

Moose, woodland caribou and big black bears, by float plane.

Newfoundland has some of the highest moose densities on the planet and the only huntable herd of woodland caribou anywhere. This family outfit has been guiding here since 1997, with its own float planes and a string of remote lakeside lodges across the island’s southwest and east-central wilderness.

THE HUNTS

The hunts

Moose

Hunt bulls in big, open country with long sightlines from lakeshores and hillsides, where good glassing points make spotting easy. Most camps produce bulls in the 30 to 40 inch range, and moose tags are available over the counter.

Choose a five-day hunt from the drive-in lodge, getting around by truck and ATV, or a six-day remote fly-in hunt. Some camps offer boat hunting for those who’d rather not walk as much.

Woodland caribou

A trophy you can only hunt here. Caribou hunts are fully one-on-one guided over two weeks, with relocation flights to new country when needed, and can be combined with moose and black bear on the same trip.

Black bear

Big Newfoundland bears, with records up to 680 pounds, hunted in spring and fall. A bear tag pairs well with any moose or caribou hunt.

WHERE YOU’LL STAY

Remote lakeside lodges

The outfit runs its own float planes, a de Havilland Beaver and a Cessna 185, and the owner has more than 35 years of bush flying in Newfoundland, so he knows exactly where the moose and caribou are.

Most lodges are rustic but comfortable log or wood cabins of about 1,000 square feet, set on the shores of big lakes and reachable only by float plane or helicopter. They sleep four to six hunters plus staff, with electricity, a fridge, indoor plumbing and hot showers, and many have a full-time chef. One helicopter-access lodge sits in a river valley ringed by big hills and is a good choice if you’re bringing a non-hunter.

There’s also a drive-in lodge with a bathroom and wooden cabins for road-access hunts.
