    Quick, simple and easy to listen to information. Much easier than reading it on paper. Good job!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 29 - CWD Awareness Week, WMA Waterfowl Huntin’, and Boise Sockeye
Q: What happened to all the porcupines in Boundary County in Unit 1?
Staff in the Panhandle region have noticed fewer occurrences of porcupines based on anecdotal evidence and camera data, and they encourage reporting sightings.
Ep. 26 - Bear Fairs, Minnows, and Idaho’s Trespassing Laws
Q: Would I be able to bring the skull or cape of an out-of-state animal straight to a local Idaho taxidermist, or is that prohibited?
Yes, you would be allowed to bring those in, assuming the hides would be without heads attached. You'd also be allowed to bring in the skull caps that do not include brain or spinal tissue, or cleaned and dried skulls or skull caps.
Ep. 32 - Quagga Returns, Wasted Elk Meat, and Access Yes! Closure
Q: Although it would be very rare if a solo hunter were to find two whitetail bucks with antlers hopelessly stuck together, and they had a single valid whitetail tag, what would their options be in Idaho?
They could shoot one of the deer and try to free the other, but it is recommended to call Fish and Game for assistance.
Ep. 31 - Whitetail Hunting Tips, Hunting Tech, and Being a Good Witness for Wildlife
Q: Why do we have to leave the brain or spinal material at the harvest site when it remains infectious?
Leaving certain carcass parts like spines and brains at kill sites helps minimize the spread of chronic wasting disease.
Ep. 33 - Survival Tips, Bringing Back Habitat, and Fall Fishing Guide
Q: Is it okay to place my validated tag on the antler of a deer or elk?
If the animal is intact, the tag can be placed on the antlers. But if it's already been quartered, the tag must be attached to the largest portion of the meat.
