 Responsible Hunters Stick to the Road
Besides frightening game, improper off-road vehicle use poses a real threat to wildlife habitats. Such practices can cause the development of new trails, fragmentation of existing habitat, loss of security cover and roads and cause substantial harm to rangelands that are critical for wildlife and livestock.
- Hunting Near Waterholes
In a state where available water is in great demand by both man and wildlife, legal and ethical dilemmas can often crop up for hunters hunting waterholes on public lands. Learn more on how you can hunt responsibly, and keep in mind:
- Waterholes on public lands belong to everyone and all hunters are entitled to free and equal access.
- Hunters should respect each other’s rights and privileges. They should leave the area if another hunter gets to the waterhole first.
- No reservations exist on public lands. Exclusive hunting rights do not belong to any hunter, regardless of whether that hunter built the blind or hung the tree stand.
- Posting a sign or note at a waterhole or on a blind or tree stand does not give anyone the exclusive right to hunt there; the hunter must be present.
