British Columbia Black Bear Hunting

British Columbia arguably has the largest population of black bears per square mile in North America. The mild coastal climate provides the bears with a very long feeding season starting early in the spring and ending late in the fall on the salmon spawning rivers. With abundant food and low hunting pressure, it’s easy to see why these British Columbia black bear hunting is so good!

Amazing archery hunting opportunities abound in BC. It’s a spot and stalk bowhunters dream.
