This bill would give landowners of 640 or more acres, 10 elk tags apiece, to do with as they wish. The hearing is scheduled for 3pm on 3/9/21, room 172 for those who wish to attend.
If you are against privatization of hunting then you probably will not like this bill. Keep in mind it was requested and is being sponsored by Wylie Galt. Also keep in mind, Galts use helicopters to herd elk from public land to private.
HB505 is currently in Fish wildlife and parks committee.
Every committee member who has responded to me, has been against this bill. However, it will not hurt for them to hear from us in numbers.
