Drivers reminded to watch for wildlife
Drivers are involved in more than 7,600 wildlife collisions on Wyoming roadways annually. The majority of those crashes — 80-85% — are with mule deer. The crash risk with mule deer increases in the fall and spring when they follow historical pathways to their winter and summer ranges.
Recovering road-killed wildlife on roads requires authorization
The Wyoming Game and Fish Department wants to remind the public that recovering road-killed wildlife requires authorization. People need approval from Game and Fish prior to collection through the Wyoming 511 app. Authorization for the collection can be done through the app, even without cellular service.
CWD found in new Wyoming hunt areas
The Wyoming Game and Fish Department has confirmed the presence of chronic wasting disease in Deer Hunt Areas 31 and 94 and Elk Hunt Area 126 through hunter-harvested surveillance.
