You will walk and/or use a boat to reach favorable hunting sites as Explo-Sylva camps are situated between the roaming areas of the two biggest herds, the Leaf River herd and the George River herd.  With more than 30 hunting sites located on 75 000 km2, they are very flexible to accommodate their hunters according to the caribou’s migration.

The hunting season spreads from August to the end of September and usually offers a good kill ratio. To date, Explo-Sylva has the best kill ratio in Northern Quebec.

Caribou lose their velvet around mid September. Two animals can be taken.  Use firearm or bow at ranges anywhere between 10 and 300 yards. Recommended firearms are  243, 308, 30.06, 270 and 300 calibers with 150 grain bullets. Bows must be at least 40 pounds and arrows with very sharp broad heads.
