State of Deer and Elk: Counting herds, and how hunters help through mandatory hunter reports

Biologists use a variety of methods to know the health of the herds, and hunters play an important role

Deer and elk live throughout Idaho in habitats ranging from desert to mixed conifer forests, and a big part of a wildlife manager’s job is to estimate how many are out there. What role do hunters play in that? More than you might realize.

Inflatable, non-motorized vessels less than 10 feet in length are exempt from this requirement. Vessels that have a valid Idaho registration do not need an additional invasive species sticker.
