Fish and Game Hosts Mule Deer Workshop

Hunters and wildlife enthusiasts are invited to participate in a free Mule Deer Management Workshop. The workshop runs from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, August 4, in Room 114 of the Plant Sciences Lecture Hall at Idaho State University in Pocatello. Workshop participants will hear from mule deer experts John Kie and Terry Bowyer from ISU as well as mule deer management expert Rick Kahn from the Colorado Division of Wildlife. Idaho Fish and Game Commission members will also participate in the workshop. Topics include mule deer biology and behavior, results of a statewide mule deer hunter survey, and the latest on the Mule Deer Initiative. The workshop will be interactive. Public participation is a key step to revising the statewide Mule Deer Management Plan this year. The workshop is sponsored by the Southeast Idaho Mule Deer Foundation and Sportsman's Warehouse. Lunch will be provided, and names will be drawn for prizes at the end of the workshop. Seating is limited, and for reservations or more information, contact Fish and Game in Pocatello at 208-232-4703.
