Who needs to report?
Hunters who purchased an elk, deer, or pronghorn tag are required to submit a Mandatory Hunter Report – even if a hunter did not hunt or harvest an animal. The report is a quick and easy questionnaire about your hunting season.
Hunters must report 10 days after harvest, or if the hunter did not hunt or harvest (deer, elk, and pronghorn only), 10 days after the closing date of their season for each tag purchased
For bear, wolf, lion, or moose, please report your harvest at any Idaho Fish and Game regional office, official checkpoint, or to a conservation officer within 10 days of the date of kill. Reporting unsuccessful hunts for these species is not required at this time.
