Alberta could soon be able to kill bears and cougars for meat and do it with a laser sight after purchasing a digital permit.

Changes to the province’s Wildlife Act will make hunting more widely accessible and easier for fish and game officers to take action to reduce animal-human conflict, says Forestry and Parks Minister Todd Loewen .

Some groups representing conservationists, hunters and outfitters endorsed the proposals, saying they’ll boost recreational opportunities.
