Crown Game Preserves were established to prohibit or regulate the hunting and trapping of wildlife in specific areas to restore local populations.

The Province is divided into nine administrative regions, having a total of 225 wildlife management units (WMU) for the purpose of efficient game management.

Game Hunting Areas (GHAs) are defined under the Hunting Areas and Zones Regulation (220/86) of The Wildlife Act (CCSM c. W130).Game Hunting Areas (GHAs) are defined under the Hunting Areas and Zones Regulation (220/86) of The Wildlife Act (CCSM c. W130). Game Hunting Areas are used to support boundaries for species specific hunting seasons, harvest allocations, bag limits, and associated regulations. Refer to the Hunting Areas and Zones Regulation for GHA boundary descriptions.

Game Preserve's in Saskatchewan.The Saskatchewan Game Preserves are described in Part III of the Wildlife Management Zones and Special Areas Boundaries Regulations (WMZSABR). They are constituted as areas for protecting, propagating, managing, controlling, regulating or enhancing wildlife or its habitat.

This interactive map shows Refuges, Special Conservation Areas, and Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) as well as Managed Hunting Areas and Animal Control Areas, WMA official trails and points of interest, the Near-Urban Centrefire Prohibition Area, and Game Hunting Areas in Manitoba.This interactive map shows Refuges, Special Conservation Areas, and Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) as well as Managed Hunting Areas and Animal Control Areas, WMA official trails and points of interest, the Near-Urban Centrefire Prohibition Area, and Game Hunting Areas in Manitoba. Refuges: This polygon layer shows the boundaries of all refuges in Manitoba, as designated by the Designation of Wildlife Lands Regulation (171/2001), under The Wildlife Act (C.C.S.M. c. W130). Refuge types include Wildlife Refuge, Game Bird Refuge, Goose Refuge, and Fur Bearing Animal Refuge. The Use of Wildlife Lands Regulation (77/99) determines prohibited activities in each refuge. Special Conservation Areas: This polygon layer shows the boundaries of all Special Conservation Areas (SCA) in Manitoba, as designated by the Designation of Wildlife Lands Regulation (171/2001), under The Wildlife Act (C.C.S.M. c. W130). Special Conservation Areas are designated to conserve and protect particular species and habitats throughout Manitoba. The Use of Wildlife Lands Regulation (77/99) determines prohibited activities in each Special Conservation Area. Wildlife Management Areas: This polygon layer shows the boundaries of all Wildlife Management Areas (WMA) in Manitoba, as designated by the Designation of Wildlife Lands Regulation (171/2001), under The Wildlife Act (C.C.S.M. c. W130). The Manitoba Wildlife Act provides for the designation of Crown lands as Wildlife Management Areas for the "better management, conservation and enhancement of the wildlife resource of the province." Wildlife Management Areas exist for the benefit of wildlife and for people's enjoyment. They play an important role in biodiversity conservation and provide for a variety of wildlife-related forms of recreation. Hunting and trapping are generally permitted in WMAs, but these activities may be prohibited or restricted in a few areas. The use of vehicles, off-road vehicles, watercraft, power boats, or airboats, may be restricted in some areas. Each WMA has its own set of restrictions in place to protect the integrity of the area. Managed Hunting Areas: This polygon layer shows the boundaries of Managed Hunting Areas and Animal Control Areas as designated by the Hunting Areas and Zones Regulation (220/86) and the Designation of Wildlife Lands Regulation (171/2001), under The Wildlife Act (C.C.S.M. c. W130). Managed Hunting Areas provide safer hunting experiences by distributing hunting pressure and ensuring that hunting only takes place on private land with the permission of the owner or lawful occupant, or on designated Crown land areas. The Managed Hunting Areas Regulation (146/2002) determines what activities are permitted, prohibited, and restricted in Managed Hunting Areas. Lands can be designated as Animal Control Areas for the purpose of wildlife management, wildlife research, protection of property or any other purpose deemed to be in the public interest. The Use of Wildlife Lands Regulation (77/99) determines prohibited activities in Animal Control Areas. Wildlife Management Area Official Trails and Points of Interest: This dataset shows official trails and points of interest within Wildlife Management Areas in Manitoba. Near-Urban Centrefire Prohibition Area: The Near-Urban Centrefire Prohibition Area (NUCPA) is a provincially-regulated prohibition of centrefire rifles for white-tailed deer hunting. This prohibition encompasses all or portions of the Rural Municipalities (RMs) of Headingley, Rosser, Rockwood, St. Andrews, West St. Paul, East St. Paul, St. Clements and Richot. Under the General Hunting Regulation (351/87) of The Wildlife Act (c. W130), no person shall have a rifle requiring a centrefire cartridge in his or her possession while hunting deer in lands identified as a Near Urban Wildlife Zone on Plan No. 20350 or 20525 filed in the office of the Director of Surveys. Game Hunting Areas: Game Hunting Areas (GHAs) are defined under the Hunting Areas and Zones Regulation (220/86) of The Wildlife Act (CCSM c. W130). Game Hunting Areas are used to support boundaries for species-specific hunting seasons, harvest allocations, bag limits and associated regulations. Refer to the Hunting Areas and Zones Regulation for GHA boundary descriptions.

Defined areas allocated by certificate under the British Columbia Wildlife Act to guide outfitters for the purpose of guiding residents, non-residents or non-resident alien hunters to hunt big game species.
