The province's own numbers for the whole management unit, not just the cutblocks: resident and non-resident hunters, hunt year April 2024 to March 2025. Mostly estimates from BC's hunter sample survey, so small numbers move a lot. Source: BC Big Game Harvest Statistics, Open Government Licence – British Columbia.
