Hunters

Hunting in Ontario

The many acres of diverse habitats we've conserved across Ontario offer a wealth of opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts.

Property Access

Ducks Unlimited Canada has delivered more than 4,000 wetland project segments and secured more than one million acres in Ontario to date.

Much of this work has been completed in partnership with private landowners. Hunters, and indeed all visitors, must seek permission from respective landowners before visiting any property. It is your responsibility to ensure you are adhering to individual property rules and regulations, with appropriate permissions and permits.
