During the hunting season, Saskatchewan’s conservation officers will be busy helping protect our province’s resources.

To keep our officers safe this hunting season, please remember:

It is illegal to carry a loaded firearm in or on your vehicle.

If a conservation officer asks you to exit your vehicle, leave your firearm behind.

Do not try to hand a firearm to an officer through an open window.

Firearm safety should always be top of mind! Always handle your firearms carefully.

Hunt smart, hunt safe!
