The Polar Bear hunt in Nunatsiavut starts today.
Selection of hunters were made yesterday under a draw system.
Jason Dicker is the Wildlife Manager for the Nunatsiavut Government.
He says that the harvesters have 7 days to try and hunt a polar bear until the license is passed down to another harvester.
There are 12 licenses that are issued by the provincial government to the Nunatsiavut Government to be used in each of the communities.
We hope to provide more information about the harvest when information becomes available.
