Well I don't think anyone can lay claim to grey fox here in Ontario. I shot 2 in the same day back in 1979ish. large male and a female.
Sent them to the north bay fur sales (about $80 each) and had the local CO's visit accuse me of smuggling them in from the states.

But there were 6 witnesses, 7 if my dog could talk.

Update: so far this year I got my pheasant, snow goose and pigeon. Also going through my old photos I gotten northern leopard and green frogs in Quebec (yes there's a season for them there) and snapping turtle a few years back before they closed the season for them I caught and released one.

Update: European Starling, Porcupine, eastern grey squirrel, chukar and bobwhite quail (both from game farms).

Update: Got a cottontail recently

Update: gotten brown-head cowbird, house sparrow, mourning dove, hungarian partridge (game farm, common gallinule, skunk, american coot, ruddy duck and gadwall this year 👍

Update: Black Scoter and finally got my wigeon drake

Cougars ? That's a young mans sport isn't it ?

Update: Willow Ptarmigan, Sharp-tailed Grouse and Canvasback added

Update: Got a Fox Squirrel and drake White-winged Scoter

I would love to go elk hunting.

Atracker, where you get the fox squirrel?? Didn’t think they lived in ON. I shot a couple in WV years ago, very fun to hunt, look like a groundhog in the scope!
