The Privatization of Elk Hunting Part 3

Today we are recording with:

Marcus Strange - Montana Wildlife Federation

John Sullivan - Montana BHA Chair / Volunteer

Andrew Posewitz - Hardcore Montana Elk Hunter

We are discussing Montana elk tag allocation. Proposed changes that will take tags away from the general tag hunter and how to navigate the possibility of Montana elk hunting going towards a similar model that New Mexico has in place!

Here are links to Montana FWP Commissioners and Commission Meetings:

Here is the agenda for upcoming FWP Commission meeting. As you can see they will be dealing with a lot of issues, including crossbows in archery-only season, grizzly bear relocation, and new 454 agreements providing elk tags to landowners in exchange for access. https://fwp.mt.gov/about-fwp/news/commissionagendas/2021/october-28-2021-commission-meeting
