Deer hunters: Now is your chance to shape the future management of white-tailed deer in Idaho. Idaho Fish and Game is surveying white-tailed deer hunters and others interested in white-tailed deer management. 

The last time the department revised its management plan was in 2005.

“It’s time that we check in with our whitetail hunters to see if your perspectives and desires have changed,” said state game manager Jon Rachael. “Your opinion, and those of other white-tailed deer hunters, will help us determine where adjustments may be needed. By understanding what white-tailed deer hunters want, we can continue to provide the best diversity of hunting opportunities consistent with the desires of our hunters.”

Fish and Game personnel have mailed a survey to a randomly selected group of license holders, emailed another randomly selected group, and also made the survey available for anyone to take here.

Whitetail hunting has grown in popularity in Idaho and currently makes up one half of the total deer harvest.
