2014
Saskatchewan Resident
Big Game Draw Supplement
The Ministry of Environment is once again pleased to offer the
2014 Big Game Draw Supplement which provides information to
assist Saskatchewan resident hunters in applying for the annual big
game draw. Included is information on seasons and quotas for all
draw species as well as advance notice of changes to this fall's
regular big game seasons. It is produced as an online document
only, in a downloadable and printable format.
This year's draw will open on Thursday, May 1, 2014 and the
application period will close on Saturday, May 31, 2014 at
midnight Saskatchewan time.
The process of applying for the big game draw is a much
anticipated event for many thousands of hunters each year. The
big game draw is a fair and equitable process that allocates the
limited number of licences available for some of this province's
most prized big game hunting opportunities. The number of
people applying for these limited hunts is increasing annually; last
year there were 51,330 applications, 54 per cent more than in 2004.
The ministry understands that due to the large number of
applicants for a limited number of licences, a number of applicants
in the top priority pool will not be drawn. To increase the odds of
being drawn, hunters are reminded to consider less popular zones
and apply for multiple zones for a given species. Information from
the 2013 draw is available on our website, which details the
number of hunters applying for each zone on a species-basis, as
well as the pool status of the successfully drawn hunters.
Reviewing this information will identify zones that had fewer
eligible applicants per available licence, and therefore afford a
greater opportunity to be selected.
All hunters who wish to apply for the 2014 big game draw are
required to provide their HAL identification number (HAL ID).
Remember, registration for a HAL ID is a one-time requirement;
if you purchased a 2013 or 2014 angling, hunting or fur licence, or
applied for the 2013 draw, you have already been assigned a HAL
number. Please use this HAL ID number when applying and do
not create another account. If you require assistance with your
identification, please call 1-855-848-4773 (8:00 am to 9:00 pm).
All awarded big game draw licences will be available through the
automated licence system on the individual hunter’s HAL account.
Licences will not be mailed to successful applicants. Please note if
you are selected for a draw licence, you will not be allowed to
purchase a regular licence for the same species. This applies even
if you decide not to purchase the draw licence.
Complete application instructions can be found at
saskatchewan.ca/huntinganglinglicences. For additional
information or assistance, please email [email protected]
or call 1-800-567-4224.
Good luck to all applicants!
We have automated our licence system!

What’s New for 2014
Improved Wildlife Management Zone Boundaries
All of the province's wildlife management zones (WMZ) have
been reviewed with the goal of improving the 'on-the-ground'
identification of their boundaries. Recent amendments have
revised the boundary descriptions for 33 wildlife management
zones. They now follow easily identifiable features such as
numbered provincial highways, numbered municipal roads or
major water bodies wherever possible. As well, a number of
zones have been permanently separated into east and west
divisions for more effective wildlife management.
A new, high-quality digital map has been produced and is
available on the ministry website in a variety of file formats, and
will be included in the 2014/15 Hunters’ and Trappers’ Guide.
The boundaries which have changed are coloured purple in the
PDF version to make them easier to identify. The ministry will
make information available to third party providers to allow
them to develop a WMZ download for GPS units and 'smart'
phones.
Big game draw participants are encouraged to familiarize
themselves with the new map before they submit their
applications.
Mule Deer Opportunities
Mule deer quotas remain similar to last year. Regular mule deer
archery hunting seasons continue in those zones with an eithersex quota greater than 50 licences but the season will be
shortened to align with the archery white-tailed deer season.
Please check the quotas list to determine which zones will have
a regular season.
Antlerless Mule Deer Opportunities
New changes to bag limits are being implemented in 2014 to
allow additional opportunities for hunters. Zones with quotas of
50 or less will now have a bag limit of one antlerless mule deer
to allow for more hunters while maintaining similar harvest. For
example, zone 21 will have a hunter quota of 70 with a bag limit
of one rather than 35 hunters with a bag limit of two. This will
allow more hunters to be drawn and have an opportunity to
hunt in these zones. Zones with a quota of over 50 will remain
at a bag limit of two to ensure the number of hunters in a zone
does not exceed landowner tolerance.
Hunters who are successfully selected for a zone with a bag limit
of two will be able to purchase both a 1st Antlerless Mule Deer
licence and a 2nd Antlerless Mule Deer licence, each at a cost of
Licence Fees
$19.62 and a total of $39.24. Hunters who are selected for a
zone with a bag limit of one will only be able to purchase a 1st
Antlerless Mule Deer licence at a cost of $19.62. One antlerless
mule deer can be harvested per licence. Please ensure you are
aware of the bag limit when selecting your zones on your big
game draw application.
White-tailed Deer Opportunities
Saskatchewan resident either-sex white-tailed deer opportunities
will continue to be open across the province with a shortened
season in place for all firearm types (archery, shotgun, crossbow,
muzzleloader and rifle) in the farmland zones. Open seasons for
antlerless white-tailed deer will be offered in the city zones of
Saskatoon and Prince Albert.
Elk Opportunities
Elk continue to be above long-term population objectives in the
Moose Mountain Provincial Park area. In addition to an eithersex draw for WMZ 33, there will be additional regular licence elk
hunting opportunities intended to reduce the elk herds in this
area. The regular seasons will occur after the September draw
hunt and include an either-sex regular season inside Moose
Mountain Park and an antlerless regular season outside the park.
Elk hunting opportunities in WMZ 33 will have extended season
dates similar to last year.
In response to concerns from landowners about rifle hunting in
early September, the draw either-sex season will be delayed until
September 15 in most farmland zones to reduce conflict with
farming activities. An additional two weeks will be added in
December to maintain the same opportunity to hunt and to
increase harvest. Please check the season dates for the area you
wish to hunt.
Moose Opportunities
Moose populations continue to be strong, with a moose season
in nearly every wildlife management zone in the province. Draw
moose quotas have increased in farmland Saskatchewan in order
to continue to reduce the moose populations in southern
Saskatchewan by targeting zones with high moose numbers and
zones with a greater number of vehicle collisions. Moose quotas
in east central forest zones have been reduced slightly to reflect
current population levels. The overall number of licences
available through the big game draw will remain at 6,000.

2014 Big Game Draw - Saskatchewan Residents
Automated Licences
Who is Eligible?
All individual applicants must be registered in the automated
licence system and have a HAL number to apply. If you have
not purchased a 2013/14 angling or hunting licence, or did not
apply for last year's draw, you can register for a HAL number by
visiting our website at saskatchewan.ca/huntinganglinglicences.
If you have an account but do not remember your HAL ID, you
can either sign into your online account to view your HAL ID or
call 1-855-848-4773. Your HAL ID can also be found on any
previously printed licences.
Only Saskatchewan residents can apply for the Saskatchewan Big
Game Draw. A Saskatchewan resident is:
How do I Apply for the Big Game Draw?
Please review the information on open zones, tentative quotas,
proper zone designations and season dates. You may also
consult the big game draw statistics from previous years to aid
with zone selections by reviewing the number of applicants who
applied in the previous year for the species/zone combination in
question at https://secure.gov.sk.ca/biggame/default.asp.
Applications will only be accepted through the big game draw
online application system, which will be open from May 1 to
midnight on May 31, 2014. You must apply online. The
applications can be accessed from
saskatchewan.ca/huntinganglinglicences. Choose “Big Game
Draw Information” and click on the link to the applications.
When applying online, you must have a Visa or MasterCard.
There is a non-refundable $4.00 fee for each application.
Applicants are encouraged to print off a copy of the receipt in
order to verify the completeness and accuracy of their
application. Retain the copy for future reference.
Once an application is submitted, applicants can also review the
status of their application by clicking on the link “Review
Current Application(s)/Draw Results/Pool Status Inquiry”, which
is available on the website.
!
a Canadian resident whose principal residence is in
Saskatchewan and has been living in the province for three
months prior to applying for a licence and possesses a valid
health services card;
!
a member of the regular force of the Canadian Armed Forces
or RCMP who is stationed and residing in the province; or
!
a member of the regular force of the Canadian Armed forces
who was a Saskatchewan resident when recruited or deployed
from the province.
Applicants must be 12 years of age or older on or before May 31,
2014 to apply for a licence. All applicants born after January 1,
1971 must graduate from a Firearm Safety/Hunter Education
(www.saskhuntered.ca) course before applying. Persons whose
hunting rights are restricted for either a Wildlife Act conviction
or a firearm incident are not eligible to submit an application to
the big game draw (including zone 99).
Youth Draw
Hunters 12 to 15 years of age can apply for the youth draw for
antlerless mule deer by selecting "Youth Draw" in the species
box. This process provides a greater opportunity for our young
hunters to be selected. A youth may apply for both “Antlerless
Mule Deer” and the “Youth Draw” by using separate
applications. The antlerless mule deer draw is completed first; if
the youth is successful, his/her “Youth Draw” application will be
removed.
Please review the Draw Antlerless Mule Deer section for
available zones, seasons and bag limits. Up to 25 per cent of the
quota will be allocated to youth entering the Youth Draw.
Changes to your big game draw application can be requested by
email at [email protected] prior to the closing date with
limited last minute changes accepted on June 2, 2014 prior to
5 p.m. Changes will not be accepted after this date.
Important information about Big Game Seals
?
HAL uses a generic big game seal; there are no longer different seals for different species.
?
If you wish to purchase your big game licence via home computer, you must first obtain blank, unregistered seals.
?
Seal packs can be obtained free of charge from licence issuers, ministry offices, select provincial parks, and
ordered online or by phone.
?
When a big game licence is purchased via the online website, an applicant must enter the number from a new,
unregistered seal in order to complete the purchase. The hunter then records the species for which the seal is
valid, the licence number, year and their signature on the seal. Once a seal is registered, the serial number is
printed on the associated licence and it cannot be used for another licence.
?
Remember, if a seal pack or a big game licence is ordered online, you must allow 10 business days for delivery.
Big game hunters must have their licence and seal in their possession before hunting is lawful.
?
Seals obtained in a seal pack can be used in future years, and don't expire until 2020.
How Do I Pay for My Application?
Applicants to the big game draw must use a credit card, either
Visa or MasterCard. Pre-paid credit cards are acceptable and are
available from banks, post offices and many retail outlets.
Hunters are required to pay a non-refundable big game draw
allocation fee of $4.00 per online application. The $4.00 fee will
be charged to the specified Visa or MasterCard immediately
upon receipt of the application.
Pool Status
The Saskatchewan big game draw uses a system of priority pools
that provide a higher priority to applicants who have not been
drawn for a number of years. The priority pools are established
based on the last time a hunter was drawn for a particular
species. There are four species-specific pools:
!
‘Super A' Pool (first priority) consists of applicants who
qualified for 'A' Pool in the previous year but were not drawn
for that species. Hunters must apply each year to maintain
their 'Super A' status for a particular species.
!
‘A' Pool (second priority) consists of applicants who were
drawn three years previous, all applicants who were drawn
more than three years previous but did not submit an
application the previous year, and all first-time applicants for
a species. Hunters who are in 'B' or 'C' pool automatically
progress to 'A' pool without applying annually.
!
‘B' Pool (third priority) consists of applicants who were
drawn two years previous.
!
‘C' Pool (fourth priority) consists of applicants who were
drawn last year.
If you wish to advance your 'A' pool status to 'Super A' or
maintain your 'Super A' status but do not want to be drawn for
a particular species, select '99' as your one and only choice in
the zone selection space on the draw application form.
Key Points to Remember
Ensure that you provide your correct HAL ID on all big game
draw applications to avoid any potential complications with
purchasing big game draw licences.
Apply early. If there are complications with submitting your
application it may take time to sort out the problem.
The number of zones (maximum of six) you choose on your
application can increase the likelihood of being drawn.
Only proper zone designations listed in the current
Saskatchewan’s Big Game Draw Supplement will be accepted.
Remember zone designations with an 'A' following the zone
numbers are for antlerless animals.
An individual can only submit one application per species. For
example, if an individual puts in two separate applications for
elk in 2014, both applications will be rejected from the draw.
The exception is for mule deer and antlerless mule deer which
are considered separate species for the purposes of the big game
draw.
For elk and moose, you can apply for both either-sex and
antlerless seasons on the same application. For example, you
may wish to apply for either-sex seasons as your first zone
choices and then antlerless seasons as your later selections. If
your application is selected, your first zone selection is
considered your first priority zone. If all licences for that zone
have been issued before your application was selected, your
second zone choice will be considered. This process is repeated
until all zone choices have been reviewed. If no quota is
available for any of your zone choices your application will not
be successful. If you are drawn, you will drop to 'C' Pool the
following year for both antlerless and either-sex.
The actual big game draw is conducted in June and the results
are posted by mid-July. An update will be placed on the website
informing hunters that the big game draw results are available.
Hunters are advised to go online and check the status of their
application. Remember each successful applicant will be
required to purchase their draw licence(s) online via a personal
computer, at a private licence issuer, at Ministry of Environment
or select provincial park offices, or by phone at 1-855-848-4773.
Seals must be obtained prior to purchasing your licence on a
personal computer unless you choose the mail option (allow 10
business days for delivery). Seals may be obtained from private
licence issuers, at Ministry of Environment or provincial park
offices, or ordered online or by phone at 1-855-848-4773. If you
are in possession of seals that were previously obtained, you can
use these to purchase a 2014 hunting licence as long as they
have not been previously used for a licence. Any seals obtained
in a convenience pack and have not yet been associated to a
licence can be used until 2020 when they expire.
How Do I Get My Licence if I am Drawn?
Licences are not automatically mailed following the draw and all
successful applicants must purchase their licences through the
automated HAL system. Big game draw licences will be
available to purchase beginning August 1.
All hunters are responsible for checking their draw results
online. Draw results are posted by early to mid-July and are
accessible from the website
saskatchewan.ca/huntinganglinglicences.
Applicants who are drawn are considered to be 'holding' a draw
licence for that species, regardless of whether or not the licence
has been purchased, and therefore are not eligible to purchase a
regular licence for that species. Big game draw licences cannot
be forfeited and all drawn applicants will move to 'C' pool for
2015. Refunds and pool status reinstatements are only issued for
medical reasons and other special circumstances.

Your HAL ID is your permanent, unique number!
If you purchased a Saskatchewan hunting, angling or trapping licence, or applied for the Big Game Draw in 2013,
you have already registered in the system and have been assigned a HAL ID. Signing up for an account is a one-time
requirement. Please do not create a second account. You only require one HAL ID for all your hunting, angling,
trapping and Big Game Draw licences or applications.
