Many Cowichan Fish and Game Association members are avid hunters. Each year prior to our annual banquet held in February members gather to measure antler, skulls, book in fish and share their past seasons adventures with others. The local area is prime habitat for a number of hunt-able species including bear, blacktail deer, cougar, grouse, quail, bandtail pigeon and many species of waterfowl. Roosevelt elk, available to hunt only through the provincial Limited Entry Draw, are rapidly increasing in the area.
