File Deer, Elk, Pronghorn Harvest Reports Online

Mandatory hunter reports will be web-based this year; most hunters will get no paper copies to send back. All deer, elk and pronghorn must complete and submit a report for each tag issued within 10 days of harvest or within 10 days of the close of the season for which their tag was valid. Fish and Game officials say web-based digital reporting is cheaper, more accurate, and results are available sooner. Hunters who supply a valid e-mail get verification they complied with the reporting requirement and will be in the drawing for 10 super tags. Hunters will need their hunting license or tag number. To submit the harvest report online go to: https://id.outdoorcentral.us/id/HunterReporting/welcome. Or go to http://fishandgame.idaho.gov, and click on the orange Hunter Report logo below the photo. They will be asked to enter the number of days hunted in each game management unit and season; the date of any harvest and the unit it was taken in; the sex, and number of points on each side of antlers or length of pronghorn horns in inches; and the type of weapon used. Hunters who file online can see the data as it will go into the database to ensure it is correct. Summaries of last year's big game hunts are available at: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/hunt/misc/species.cfm#biggame.
