In December 2021, Saskatchewan Conservation Officers received information that bear gall bladders were being actively bought and sold in Saskatchewan. The sale of bear parts and gall bladders in Saskatchewan is illegal and can negatively affect populations. Conservation Officers are asking for the publics assistance in identifying any individuals and businesses involved.

If you have any information, call the toll-free Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment Turn In Poachers & Polluters Line 1-800-667-7561 or #5555 from a Sasktel cellphone (phone calls only, no text messages). You can also report online at saskatchewan.ca/tipp. Remember, you can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward if your information leads to a conviction.
