Guided Mountain Lion Hunts in Alberta, Canada
Alberta dominates the record books when it comes to Cougars and there is no better place to go if a giant Tom is on your wish list. The current cougar population is estimated to be between 2,500 and 3,000 animals, and the province only allows 26 non-resident hunters per year ensuring high quality hunting.
Alberta Cougar Hunts
Our cougar hunts take place starting in January and run through to the end of March. We only take 4 cougar hunts per year, 2 per cougar management area (CMA) and we have the exclusive hunting rights to these areas for non-resident hunters. Our hunting area is in the southwestern part of Alberta along the Montana and British Columbia borders. The cats in this area feed primarily on deer, Rocky Mountain Elk, and Bighorn Sheep. Since we have such a healthy prey animal population, we have a healthy cougar population.
All of our hunts are done with hounds, and we have two different guides that are both world-class houndsman and each one runs the hunts in their specific CMA. These guides love hunting cats and will do everything in their power to find you the trophy you’re looking for. You and your guide will get up first thing every morning and search the area for fresh lion tracks. This may be done in a pickup truck or on a snowmobile depending on the location and the weather conditions. If you are able to locate a trophy-sized track, the hounds will be released and the hunt will be on!
Please note that these hunts are more physically demanding than most guys expect, so please come ready to hike!
Since the shooting distance will be short-range, we prefer you to use one of our guns so that you can avoid the hassles of traveling across the border with a firearm.
