Idaho Fish and Game

Supplemental brochure to Idaho Big Game Seasons & Rules

To be used in conjunction with the Idaho Big Game 2024 Seasons & Rules Brochure

To use this supplement: This supplement provides tag quotas and limits by location for general-season elk, regular deer, and whitetailed deer tag types. It is intended to be used as a cross reference with the Idaho Big Game Seasons and Rules brochure, which specifies hunt seasons and boundaries, as well as wildlife laws and other useful information. Visit idfg.idaho.gov/rules/big-game to view the brochure.

Big game seasons and bag limits for 2023 and 2024 were set by the Idaho Fish and Game Commission in March 2023. The Fish and Game Commission retains emergency authority to modify or eliminate hunts within the twoyear season-setting cycle. It is the tag holder’s responsibility to know the rules for the tag they have purchased, including season dates and restrictions. IDFG will contact tag holders only if the tag holder’s hunt is entirely eliminated (all seasons eliminated) and inform them of available options. 

Please verify that your hunt has not been changed or eliminated when the Idaho Big Game 2024 Seasons and Rules brochure is published in April 2024.
