About the Event
Join us for an afternoon celebrating Yukon hunting, fishing, and conservation. Big Bull Night is YFGA’s annual wildlife scoring and community celebration, bringing together Yukon hunters, anglers, conservationists, families, and youth for a day of learning, recognition, and connection.
Attendees are invited to bring cleaned antlers, horns, and skulls from animals harvested between January 1 and December 31, 2025 for official antler and horn measurement and scoring.
Cleaned skulls are required. This is critical for accurate scoring and to respect the time of our volunteer scorers.
These measurements contribute valuable data that supports ethical wildlife management and conservation in the Yukon.
