Choose Alberta for your Wolf Hunt
With the addition of the wolf to the North American Super Slam 29, Alberta has quickly become a premier destination for hunters looking to complete their Slam. The province offers exceptionally strong wolf populations, vast expanses of wilderness, and remarkably low population density. Alberta covers nearly the same landmass as Texas, yet is home to only about 5 million residents. Extensive road networks created through logging and oilfield development also provide hunters with unparalleled access to remote wolf habitat across the province.
Wolves may be hunted by the holder of a wolf license (a nominal fee) from the opening of any big game season until the end of the spring bear season.

Seasons, Rules & Regulations
Some outfitters offer winter wolf hunts, when the pelts are at their best, and no other hunting seasons are open. Baiting wolves is legal and effective. As well, during late February and early March, wolves can be “howled in” during the mating season.
There is no limit on wolves, but they are subject to CITES regulations. Hunters may not take their wolf trophy home with them, but must wait for the issuance of a CITES permit to have their trophy shipped.
