Nova Scotia suspends licensed Cape Breton moose hunt for three years due to population decline.

Nova Scotia has suspended the licensed Cape Breton moose hunt for three years due to a significant drop in the population, which has fallen from 1,500 to around 835. The Mi'kmaq also put a moratorium on their rights-based moose harvest until population numbers are sustainable. The decision aims to allow the government to implement conservation measures and help the moose population recover.
