The Minister’s Special Licence Auction (MSLA) program began in 1995 with a special licence for bighorn sheep. It has expanded over the years and today is proud to offer eight once-in-a-lifetime hunting opportunities, available to Alberta resident hunters and international hunting visitors. APOS administers the special permits for sheep, mule deer, moose, elk, whitetail deer, pronghorn, cougar, and turkey, working with the Wild Sheep Foundation (WSF) and the Western Hunting and Conservation Expo (WHCE) to market the permits. After raising $596,750 USD in 2024, the auctioned permits went on to raise $651,000 USD in spring 2025, with the addition of the newest permits for whitetail and cougar.

Funds generated by the permits go back into Alberta wildlife stewardship and conservation projects that:
