Game
Overview
Game farms raise animals such as elk, deer, and bison. They are raised on land that will not grow crops, called pasture land. They raise these animals for meat and trophy hunting.
These bison are being raised on a game farm.
Game animals are used for a variety of products, including meat, hides, feathers, and antlers.
Year at a Glance
Game animals are less hands-on, as the farmer rarely comes in close contact to the animals. The farmer will feed the animals and make sure the fences do not need any repair daily.
The fences need to be tall and sturdy to keep game animals in.
Game farms are busy during fall hunting seasons in Saskatchewan. Hunters can pay to go to the farm and hunt the game animals and then keep the meat.
Hunters pay a fee to hunt animals on a game farm.
