The polar bear hunting season opened today in Nunatsiavut.
Todd Broomfield is the Director for Renewable Resources for the Nunatsiavut Government.
He says that this year they have a quota for 12 bears to be harvested; 3 in Nain and Hopedale, and 2 in Postville, Makkovik and Rigolet.
Broomfield adds that the season closes on June 30th or whenever the quota is filled.
Broomfield would also like to advise our listeners that there is still moose meat that is being held in Goose Bay.
The moose meat will be distributed again once the COVID levels go down.
