ABSTRACT

The NWT Resident Hunter Harvest Survey has been taking place annually in essentially its present form since 1982/83. At the end of each licence year all Resident Hunters are mailed a questionnaire requesting information on the past year’s hunting activity and successes.

In 1993/94, 2173 hunters were sent the survey package. The survey was delivered to 1748 of them and responses to the survey totalled 1086.

The Resident Hunter Survey in 1993/94 covered barren-ground and woodland caribou, moose, Dall’s sheep, black bear, wolf, wolverine, hares, grouse, ducks and geese. The popularity of hunted game ranked in descending order, based on available licencing information, is small game, barren-ground caribou, moose, woodland caribou, wolf, black bear, wolverine then Dall’s sheep.

Results from the survey are summarized and presented in a variety of table formats that address interest in hunting, response to the survey, hunting effort, hunt success, composition of the harvest, wildlife management area use and projections of estimated total harvests.

INTRODUCTION

NWT Resident Hunters are primarily non-natives who meet the 2-year residency

requirement and are 16 or more years of age for big game hunting or, if certain conditions

are met, can be between 14 and 16 years of age for small game. Resident Hunters make

up approximately 20% of the 1993/94 NWT hunting public. Approximately half of the

population of NWT Resident Hunters lives in Yellowknife.

The NWT Resident Hunter Survey in much its present form has been ongoing

since hunting licence year 1982/83. Minor changes have occurred over the years to the

list of included species and questionnaire layout. The underlying method of 3 sequential

mailings at the end of the licence year (July 1 to June 30) and the expansion of survey

results to estimated total harvest has remained unchanged throughout the years.

This survey attempts to obtain hunting and harvesting information from all NWT

Resident Hunters who purchased big game or small game hunting licences in the

previous licence year. The list of hunters to survey is taken from the centralized Game

Licensing system. Any inaccuracies in the licencing system database of course will be

carried into the survey, the results and the projections to estimated total harvest.

Survey results are typically organized by community and region for each species.

Community is where the hunter resides or resided at the time of licence purchase. Dall’s

sheep hunting showing up for a Baffin community can mean that a community resident

travelled to take advantage of an opportunity to hunt or has relocated.

The wildlife covered by the survey in 1993/94 included barren-ground and

woodland caribou, moose, Dall’s sheep, black bear, wolf, wolverine, hares, grouse, ducks

and geese. Resident Hunters can each purchase up to 5 barren-ground caribou tags and

2

any number of wolf and wolverine tags. The tag limit for woodland caribou, moose,

black bear and Dall’s sheep is 1 per hunter per year.

Some species are hunted incidentally or in combination with other primarily

sought species. The popularity of game in descending order, based on available licencing

information, is small game, barren-ground caribou, moose, woodland caribou, wolf, black

bear, wolverine then Dall’s sheep. Licencing information for waterfowl is not available

for 1993/94 Resident Hunters.

Results from the survey are summarized and presented in a variety of table

formats that address interest in hunting, response to the survey, hunting effort, hunt

success, composition of the harvest, wildlife management area use and projections of

estimated total harvests.

METHODS

Hunting Licence information was maintained in a centralized database in the

Game Licencing System. Annual licence and tag information from Renewable Resources

offices and private vendors in the various regions was entered, batch mode, into the

database tables by Department staff in regional centres. Resident Hunter name, address,

licence and tag information was subsequently downloaded at the end of the licence year

to form the list of hunters to be surveyed. As soon as practicable at the end of the licence

year, the survey package was mailed out to all Resident Hunters recorded in the list from

the Game Licencing System. The survey package included a letter introducing the survey

and inviting the recipients’ participation, a questionnaire on hunting activity and success,

a small map of the wildlife management areas, a table of previous years results by region

and a prepaid business reply mail envelope. The method of re-mailing the same basic

package with slightly strengthening tone of the accompanying letter for 2 follow-ups of

the non-respondents at intervals of approximately 6 weeks has remained the same as

reported by Chalmers (1990). The questionnaire employed (Figures 1 & 2) and the

included map (Figure 3) are reproduced below.

Compiled results from survey responses are projected to estimated total harvests

by the “ratio method” using this algorithm:

estimated harvest = reported harvest × total tags issued ÷ tags held by respondents

This equation is used per species and can integrate groups of hunters from community to

whole territory levels. At this time estimates cannot be derived for waterfowl as the

NWT licencing system is not dedicated to issuing migratory bird hunting permits.

In the case of the widely hunted barren-ground caribou, the so-called “linear

regression method” can also be used to project reported kill to estimated total harvest. In

this method reported kills accumulated over the response waves (for mailings 1 to 3) are

regressed against accumulated tags reporting and the estimated kill is determined by

extrapolating the best fit line to total issued tag number. The Norecon report (GNWT

1994) found that there is no significant difference in estimates derived by the ratio or the

regression method at the regional level of integration. The regression method is not

always practical at the lower levels of hunter integration where there are few hunters and

7

little caribou hunting. The method relies on adequate response over three waves to

establish a best-fit line. The regression method has typically been used at the level of

regional integration.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

In 1993/94 there were 2173 NWT Resident Hunters recorded in the Game

Licencing System. Of these, 1929 had big game licences and 1547 held authorizations

for small game. The survey package was mailed to 100% of the hunters and was

delivered to 1748 of them over the course of 3 mailing waves. Replies were received

from 1068 of the hunters who received the survey package. Hunting activity was

reported by 808 of those who responded to the survey. Detailed information, by

community, on numbers of hunters and their licences is listed in Appendix 1: Number of

NWT Resident Hunting Licence Holders. Appendix 2: Survey Response by NWT

Resident Hunters details the response down to community level.

Overall, there is considerable variation in the level of hunt detail provided and in

the completeness of response received back from hunters in this survey. When preparing

the results tables, attempts were made to include any and all information provided.

Results for hunter-group integrations at successively higher levels are calculated

from the original response data and are not derived from lower level integrations reported

in the same tables. This is necessary because of respondent inconsistencies in filling in

the blanks on the survey questionnaire. For example, there may be a number of hunts

reported but duration information may only be reported for a fraction of those. Average

days hunted can only be calculated on the basis of the number of hunts that reported their

duration and not on the total of all hunts made.

Some species are hunted incidentally or in combination with other primarily

sought species. The popularity of game in descending order, based on available licencing

information, is small game, barren-ground caribou, moose, woodland caribou, wolf, black

9

bear, wolverine then Dall’s sheep. Information for waterfowl is not available for

1993/94.

Appendix 3: Hunter Response and Kills by Survey Wave presents hunt success

by hunt number for each of the survey response waves and uses the ratio method to

expand total reported kill to an estimated total kill down to the community level.

Waterfowl are not included in this table. The species composition of small game harvest

per community is presented in Appendix 4: Small Game Harvest by Community

Respondents, Reported and Estimated Kill. A species breakdown of reported waterfowl

harvest is detailed in Appendix 5: Waterfowl Harvest Reported by Community

Respondents.

The Norecon report (GNWT 1994) and to some extent the Chalmers (1990) report

engage in a discussion of the validity of estimating harvest for a population of NWT

Resident Hunters from a respondent sample. The basic assumptions in the method

employed are that hunt information is reported accurately and that the behaviour and

success of the respondents indeed reflects that of the entire population of interest. At this

point we continue to live with the uncertainties inherent in these assumptions but can take

some comfort in the fact that 61% of those who received the questionnaire responded to

it. The year-to-year consistency of the method can provide, at a very minimum, a basis

for valid trend assessment across spans of years (assuming of course that the licence and

tag information at the start is correct).

Hunting effort expressed as average number of days spent hunting is presented

per community in Appendix 6: Number of Hunts Made and Average Days Hunted by

10

Respondents. No hunt duration information was collected for small game, wolf and

wolverine hunts.

Information on management areas hunted is presented in a series of tables in the

appendices listed below. These tables include the number of hunts and age/sex

information for any reported caribou, moose, black bear and Dall’s sheep kills. The

hunts included in these tables are only those where a management area was listed on the

completed questionnaire. Information on waterfowl and small game lists the number of

reported hunts and total kills only. Management area information for wolf and wolverine

hunts was not requested on the survey questionnaire in 1993/94.

The Wildlife Management Zone map in use at the time appears to have caused

some confusion particularly in the southern portion of zone G-1. The G-1 area south of

the Mackenzie River and Great Slave Lake was sometimes referred to by hunters as G-2

because of the positioning of the G-2 label for the Mackenzie Bison Sanctuary. The same

scenario with labels arrowed to small zones may have caused some miss-assignment in

some other areas too though likely to a much lesser extent than in the more heavily used

G zone.

Appendix 7: Management Areas Hunted for Cervids by Community Respondents (cervids include barren-ground and woodland caribou and moose). Appendix 8: Management Areas Hunted for Black Bear by Community Respondents. Appendix 9: Management Areas Hunted for Dall’s Sheep by Community Respondents. Appendix 10: Management Areas Hunted for Other Game by Community Respondents (includes reported hunts and total reported kills for small game, waterfowl and occasionally wolf).

11

Appendices 11 to 14 cover a series of tables that present the same hunt and kill

information as the previous 4 but organize it by management area with the communities

that hunt there listed for each.

Appendix 11: Communities that Hunted Cervids in the Various Management Areas. Appendix 12: Communities that Hunted Black Bear in the Various Management Areas. Appendix 13: Communities that Hunted Dall’s Sheep in the Various Management Areas. Appendix 14: Communities that Hunted Other Game in the Various Management Areas.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

It is the NWT Resident Hunters who year after year take the time to complete the

survey questionnaires who enable this study to continue. It is this relationship of

responsible hunters with their wildlife management agencies that will allow the

sustainable continuation of the hunting tradition.

Thanks must also be extended to those GNWT workers who administered our

system of licencing and kept the central database updated with the information needed to

run this survey.

Big thanks also to all the helpers at wildlife headquarters who lent a hand in

getting all the survey paper organized and on its way to the intended victims.
