Naalakkersuisut comes to the rescue of the commercial prisoners

Up to and including 31 December 2025, persons with a commercial hunting license can continue hunting for wolverines. This is due to a lack of income opportunities in certain administrative areas, says Naalakkersuisut.

Commercial trappers can catch up to 20 loons per day up to and including 31 December 2025. But they may only sell the catch in their respective management areas.
