MOOSEWith 50-inch moose racks and weighing up to 544 kilograms (1,200 pounds), our Eastern Canadian moose are surprisingly agile and able to move swiftly through what appears to be impenetrable forest.There are more than 150,000 moose in Newfoundland and Labrador, right here in the northeast corner of North America. NFBGA hunters enjoy a success rate of over 90 per cent. Moose population densities are higher than anywhere else in North America and as high as anywhere in the world. There simply is no better place to hunt for moose and Stubberud Hunting and Fishing tours makes it easy. Every member of a hunting party may purchase a license and take a moose. Bow, muzzle-loader and rifle hunting are permitted. We give 100% effort so you can have the hunt of your dreams. HERE'S WHAT AN EDITION OF OUTDOOR CANADA MAGAZINE HAD TO SAY ABOUT NEWFOUNDLAND MOOSE:  "The Rock (Newfoundland is often referred to as The Rock because of its rugged beauty) is without a doubt the place to hunt Moose in North America right now. Consider two facts: Newfoundland boasts a current moose population of 120,000 to 150,000 animals: and hunter success rates across the province exceed 80 percent with many areas touching on 100 percent. Most experts agree that Newfoundland has the densest moose population in North America. I can hear all the "nay-sayers" now, suggesting that while there may be lots of moose, they're not big. That's simply not true. The body size of Newfoundland swamp donkeys is very comparable to that of moose in Western Canada. While Newfoundland doesn't have the 60 to 70 inch spreads found in western animals, bulls in the 40 to 50 inch plus class (trophies by anyone's standards) are definitely available. Boone and Crockett scores in the 180 to 190 class are not out of the question for todays Newfoundland moose hunter." Caribou Stubberud Hunting and Fishing tours offers a hunt of the world's most southerly and only hunted Woodland Caribou. Newfoundland possesses more than 100,000 of these beautiful creatures and offers the only significant opportunity to take home a trophy. The Woodland Caribou are darker, stockier and have heavier antlers than their Barren Ground cousins. These caribou were once common from Maine to Montana but are now found mainly in Canada, particularly in Newfoundland. Large males, weighing upwards of 500 pounds and sporting an impressive mahogany colored antlered crown are a sight to behold and a challenge to hunt. Newfoundland's woodland caribou herds migrate over known, relatively fixed paths each year making for easier access and success. Over the years, the previous outfitter Wilderness Horizons was able to harvest many Boone and Crockett caribou scoring over 300 each. Their kill percentage was second to none and with 100% effort from OUR experienced guides, your hunt will last you forever. Black Bear Stubberud Hunting and Fishing tours offers some of the most exciting black bear hunting in North America. The island of Newfoundland is home to approximately 14,000 of the large bodied bruins and with minimal hunting pressure, a spring baited hunt can offer some of the most intense hunting imaginable. It is a known fact that Newfoundland black bear , on average, are amongst the largest on the planet. With their high protein intake of moose and caribou calves, the Newfoundland black bear has been known to reach the enormous size of 700 pounds. Biologists believe the black bear of Newfoundland consume 35% of all moose calves born and with their unusual massive height and skull diameter, a trophy is quite a possibility. Newfoundland black bear are black and do not come in color phases this far East. The bear season runs from June into July and from mid September to late October. The hunts can be easily combined with spring trout fishing or fall moose and caribou hunts. Wilderness Horizons spring black bear hunts, in the past had a 90-100% kill rate with the average bear size being between 300 - 400 pounds. They recently harvested monster black bears reaching 600-700 pounds. Our co-operation partner promise to maintain the top quality hunts that you have come to expect.
