Alberta forestry minister says wolverine, lynx trapping limits lifted to gather data

Alberta Forestry Minister Todd Loewen says the decision to lift limits on trapping and harvesting for animals like wolverines is being done to get more data on how many there are.Until recently, trappers on Crown land were almost entirely prohibited from trapping wolverines, and less prohibitively lynx, river otters and fishers – but Loewen’s decision means it’s now open season on all four.
