Woodland Caribou Hunting in Newfoundland
The imperial woodland caribou is the one Canada's most sought after and prized big game trophies. Western Newfoundland Canada is the premier location for woodland caribou hunting in North America. While bountiful herds of approximately 60,000 woodland caribou roam the pristine wilds of Western Newfoundland today, harvest of these remarkable trophy beasts is strictly regulated. Several years ago, the woodland caribou were elusive and frequented only the most isolated barrens and ancient forests of the Newfoundland frontier. It was not until the 1990's as their populations began to rise that these so-called grey monarchs were sighted with any regularity.
Mitchell's Pond Hunting and Fishing Outfitters is one of the select licensed woodland caribou outfitters able to offer our guests a rare caribou hunting adventure and the opportunity to harvest one of the majestic trophy beasts. The success rate for the woodland caribou hunting guests of Mitchell's Pond Hunting and Fishing Outfitters is consistently near an incredible 100%. Sportsmen may expect to harvest superior Pope and Young, and Boone and Crockett trophies that weigh an average 400-500 pounds. Unlike its counterpart the barren ground, the more limited migratory pattern of the woodland caribou causes these specimens to develop impressive antlers, the largest of all the world's big game animals in proportion to body size.
