Fire safety is a must this time of year

Fire safety practices

It has been a dry and hot summer across most of Wyoming. As temperatures rise, vegetation begins to dry, creating fuels that can create high fire dangers. To *help protect wildlife habitat and other public lands* [ [link removed] ], the Wyoming Game and Fish Department implements fire restrictions on department-managed properties where people camp and recreate.




Apply now for Wyoming preference points

All applications must be submitted online through the Wyoming Game and Fish Department website.

Months of planning have passed and it’s finally hunting season for some. But before you hit the trail this fall, the Wyoming Game and Fish Department wants to remind people who recreate in bear country to take safety precautions and *be on the lookout for bears — and signs of bears.
