Feed Nova Scotia to receive 450 kilos, which will be distributed to food banks across the province

The meat harvested from a moose cull in the Cape Breton Highlands National Park this month will help feed hungry families across Nova Scotia this winter.

The hunt was conducted by the Unama’ki Institute of Natural Resources of Eskasoni, in partnership with Parks Canada. The goal was to reduce damage to boreal forest caused by moose browsing.

The cull was initially halted by non-aboriginal hunters who staged a protest; some were opposed to the hunt, while others wanted to be included. The protest was eventually called off and the cull resumed this month.
