All harvested cougars must be checked through ODFW within 72 hours. Season runs April 15 through May 31 with a limit of one male turkey a day and two for the season. Some higher elevation roads remain closed by snow. Bears should become active as spring arrives. Please collect premolar teeth from any bear harvested and reproductive tract from any female bear harvested.
Snow still blocks many high elevation roads.
Cougar numbers are at high population levels. Hunters are reminded the season goes through May 31st, concurrent with turkey and spring bear seasons. Coyote numbers are fair. Recent snow accumulation has moved coyotes closer to livestock operations where calves are being born. Adjacent public lands in mule deer winter range areas would be best for coyote calling.
