British Columbia · Season dates by Management Unit
Alces alces
As of October 29, 2026, a moose season is running in 94 of the 221 British Columbia Management Units North Ground evaluates, under the rules it has certified from the official regulations. In 91 units, whether a season is open to you depends on your hunt — licence, residency, tag or method. By unit: in season in 3, depends on your hunt in 91, needs a closer look in 14, closed in 44, not covered here in 69. "Not covered here" is a gap in North Ground's coverage, not a closed season.
Certified season dates
Units are grouped where every certified season — legal animal, methods, dates and material conditions — is identical. Different opportunities are never merged because their dates overlap.

Questions
As of October 29, 2026, a moose season is running in 94 of the 221 British Columbia Management Units North Ground evaluates, under the rules it has certified from the official regulations. In 91 units, whether a season is open to you depends on your hunt — licence, residency, tag or method. By unit: in season in 3, depends on your hunt in 91, needs a closer look in 14, closed in 44, not covered here in 69. "Not covered here" is a gap in North Ground's coverage, not a closed season. A running season is not a licence: licensing, legal hunting hours and local restrictions still apply.
The moose seasons running on October 29, 2026 close on Oct 31, 2026 in every unit where one is running. Later seasons, where certified, are listed by unit on this page.
After October 29, 2026, the next certified moose season opens Nov 1, 2026 and runs to Nov 15, 2026 in MU 3-12, MU 3-13, MU 3-14, MU 3-18, MU 3-19, MU 3-20 and 27 more.
Government of British Columbia sets them by Management Unit. North Ground evaluates 221 of them (the authority publishes 225). This page lists what the certified rules state for each of them.
