Fish and Game holding open houses on upcoming hunting seasons

Fish and Game Commission will set deer, elk, black bear, pronghorn and wolf seasons in March

Fish and Game staff will hold a series of open houses around the state to talk to hunters about their preferences for rules and seasons for the upcoming big game hunts.

The department will also provide a list of proposed rule changes for the 2019-20 big game hunting seasons before the first meetings, and people will be able to see those proposals and comment online.

An Open house will be held in Mountain Home on Feb. 5 from 6 p.m. until 8 p.m. at Mountain Home Junior High School, 1600 East 6th South.

The Idaho Fish and Game Commission will review public comments, and are scheduled to set seasons and rules during its March 12-13 meeting in Boise.
