Although sightings have been reported here in New Brunswick, there is no confirmed evidence to suggest that The Great Northern Snark's range is much beyond Maine. However, due to the recent asymtotic change in habitat from Acadian Old Growth forest to New England Boreal Forest caused by heavy lumbering without adequate modern sylviculture enforcement, the arrival of the Great Northern Snark and like species is only a matter of time, the schedule of which is anyone's guess.

The DNRE, Department of Natural Resources and Energy, has indicated it will not allow a Snark season until their presence is confirmed by Department biologists and research studies have established the overall health and stability of the Snark population over time, ensuring a viable and sustainable hunt.

When contacted for comment, the NBAR's, New Brunswick Association of Rednecks, say they welcome anything new to supplement the local diet. NBAR's Chief Spokesman, Dale, is quoted as saying, "If she's brown, she's down. I like to eat - you like to eat? I don't got no fancy green uniform and no big government salary. You like to eat? I like to eat."
