Hunt Season & Regulations
The Wildlife Heritage Trust is administered by
the Board of Wildlife Commissioners. The money in the account is
used for the ‘protection, propagation, restoration, transplanting,
introduction, and management of any game fish, game mammal, game
bird, or fur-bearing mammal and the management and control of predatory
wildlife in this state."
The funds are obtained from bid, auction
or partnership in wildlife drawings or from a gift of money made
by any person to the Wildlife Heritage Trust Account. The amount
of funds available from year to year for projects depends on funds
deposited each year and interest earned annually on the account.
The department is allowed to expend no more than 75% of the money
deposited in the account the previous year, plus any interest earned
during the prior year.
The Heritage Trust account started in 1998 and due to the generosity
of its participants over the years, the account has now grown to
over $5 million. The table below displays the organizations that
were awarded Wildlife Heritage tags to auction at their fundraising
events. The auctioned tags benefit the Wildlife Heritage Trust Account.
You may also be interested in learning about our Partnership
in Wildlife (PIW) program. PIW is a voluntary and optional
participation program that offers unique hunting opportunities to
hunters for a few statewide big game tags.
