2005-2006 Furbearer Quotas Set
The Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Commission recently set the final
2005-2006 furbearer quotas.
The commision made few changes in the proposed tentative regulations. Among
the changes was an increase in the otter quota in western Montana’s FWP
Region 2, which was increased from 19 to 20.
The bobcat quota was increased in northwestern Montana’s Region 1 from 200
to 250; from 225 to 300 in southwestern Montana’s Region 3; and from 600 to
700 eastern Montana’s Region 7.
