The Hunter and Bowhunter Education Advisory Committee will hold its first meeting at the University of Providence in Great Falls June 6 and 7.

State wildlife agencies across the West have approved major reductions to 2023 deer tags after a tough winter and amidst drought and disease.

FWP decided to allow the extra hunting permits issued to five either-sex bighorn sheep applicants in HD 482-20 and two moose hunters in HDs 270-50 and 341-50 to be given.

Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks accidentally allocated 60 more bighorn sheep tags and four more moose tags than what quotas called for.

Fish, Wildlife & Parks over allocated these highly prized tags in seven different hunting districts in its recent drawing. Realizing the mistake, the agency is issuing a recall.
