Dear First,

     Do you want a say in how Idaho's elk are managed? If you do, get involved in Idaho Fish and Game's elk management plan.

     Right now Fish and Game is pulling together draft proposals for each of Idaho's 29 elk zones based in part on changes in habitat, predation, and agricultural depredation conflicts. This is your opportunity to help craft elk population goals and elk hunting opportunities in your favorite elk zones.

Sincerely,
Elk Management Team
