Open houses will be held in each region for hunters to weigh in on the season-setting process.
Idaho Fish and Game will be gathering public input on new moose, bighorn sheep, and mountain goat season proposals starting Dec. 19. Proposals are expected to be posted on Dec. 19, and the comment period will run through Jan. 9, 2025 at 6 p.m. at idfg.idaho.gov/comment.
Moose, bighorn sheep, and mountain goat seasons will be finalized by the Fish and Game Commission during its Jan. 29 meeting in Boise. The application period for moose, bighorn sheep, and mountain goat controlled hunts runs April 1-30.
The public comment process will also include meetings and open houses hosted at Fish and Game’s regional offices at the time and dates listed below. Staff at some regions will host a meeting and provide an overview of their proposals, while others will hold office hours where people can stop in and talk to a biologist during that time.
