Unlawful outfitting activities and possession of wild animals at a domestic game farm in the province near Briercrest has two people facing major penalties, thanks to an investigation by the Saskatchewan Conservation Officer Service. Guest host Brent Loucks speaks with Makayla Lupien, Saskatchewan conservation officer, to learn more about the investigation.

A woman from Maidstone, Sask., is facing a $12,000 fine and a five-year hunting suspension after an interprovincial investigation found that the woman had illegally trafficked bear gall bladders. The investigation began back in March 2022. Guest host Brent Loucks welcomes Todd Smith, executive director of the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation (SWF), to explain why these bear parts are valuable and the concerns with illegal trafficking in Saskatchewan.
