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.
