Problem Wildlife Issues

Sturgeon County has small animal traps available for rent, as a humane method of removal. Visit Agriculture Store & Rentals to request a trap.

To report dangerous wildlife encounters, call Report a Poacher at 1-800-642-3800. For a problem with an animal that’s not an emergency, call Report-a-Poacher to reach a wildlife officer or visit the Government of Alberta’s website.

Submit a service request if: 

  • You are looking for suggestions on how to manage problem wildlife and have been referred to Sturgeon County by Alberta Fish and Wildlife.
  • A coyote or fox is disturbing livestock or a beaver is causing flooding of agricultural lands.

#SturgeonCounty offices will be operating with reduced hours May 15, to accommodate a staff training event. Offices will re-open from 10:30 AM - 4:30 PM.

A fire restriction is in effect for Sturgeon County and the towns of Bon Accord, Legal and Redwater.
