The caribou (Rangifer tarandus) is the most widely distributed big game animal in Canada and Newfoundland's Woodland variety is the world’s most southerly herd. Although there are small numbers of Woodland Caribou in other locations in Canada, Newfoundland offers the only significant opportunity to take this trophy. The
Caribou herd in the vicinity of Sou’wester Outfitting’s two hunting lodges
contains many trophy class animals. Large males, weighing upwards of 500 lbs and
sporting an impressive, mahogany coloured, antlered crown is beautiful to see
and a challenge to hunt. The mating period for caribou usually occurs during the
period of early October to mid November. As with moose hunting, hunters may use
bow, muzzleloader or rifle.
Sou’wester Outfitting’s Woodland Caribou hunts are truly world class and are
second to none in quality. For most years Sou'wester Outfitting's success rate
for non-resident bow, muzzleloader and rifle hunters is 100%. |
