Non residence of New Brunswick are required to have a licensed guide if they plan on hunting black bear here and you must be at least 16 years of age. In my opinion that’s great as it puts money into the pockets of our local economy.

This works great in a number of ways.

  • A non resident black bear hunter possibly gets the experience of a lifetime.
  • A black bear guide or outfitter makes a living and of course spends his/her earnings locally.
  • The black bear population is controlled so there is a healthy population that is less likely to move into populated areas.

A non resident can purchase a license from a local licensed outfitter or guide, they may also enter into computerized draw.

Note To Non Resident Black Bear Hunters:

  • The non resident black bear hunter can only hunt in one Wild Life Management Zone.
  • Also the license is not transferable or refundable.
  • Only one bear per season

Find the Wild Life Management Zone Map and more info here.
