Non-Res Federal Lands

[mostlybirch]

this thread has me wondering if NR fees should be higher

Don't be naive, and stop kidding yourselves, states (most) don't manage animals, they manage hunters.

Thanks man. All this time I had thought that States (all) managed both. The truth is out there.

Not only should non-residents be able to pay the same to hunt a state's game as its residents, but we also need to do something about all this deadfall out west. It is making it too damn hard for non-residents to traverse these sweet sweet western units.

I think it would only be fair that residents divulge any gps coordinates to non- residents as it’s only fair because we have more time to scout

I thought that was what Rokslide is for?

I volunteer to cache oxygen tanks along the hike in to these locations. It’s only fair since they don’t have time to acclimate to the elevation.

Okay, folks, let me tell you, this whole non-resident hunting license thing, it's a DISASTER. A total, absolute disaster. These out-of-state hunters, they're coming into OUR lands, taking OUR deer, OUR elk, OUR everything, and they're paying peanuts! Peanuts, I tell ya! It's unfair, it's a disgrace, and frankly, it's SAD.

We're talking about the best hunting, the most beautiful public lands, anywhere in the world, folks. And these outsiders, they're getting a STEAL. They're laughing all the way to the bank, believe me. They're saying, "Look at these suckers, letting us hunt their trophy bucks for next to nothing!"

Now, I love our residents, they're the best, the greatest hunters, true sportsmen and women. They deserve a break. They live here, they pay taxes here, they support our local economies. Why should they have to pay the same as some out-of-stater who just waltzes in and takes our wildlife? It's ridiculous!

So, we're putting a stop to it. We're putting up BIG, BEAUTIFUL non-resident hunting tag fees. HUGE fees. The best fees. And you know what? These out-of-state hunters, they'll pay them. Because they know our hunting is the best. And they'll be contributing to our state's wildlife management programs, which, frankly, are the greatest in the world.

This isn't about being greedy, folks. It's about being SMART. It's about putting AMERICA, and our resident hunters, FIRST! We're making our hunting great again, believe me. And everyone, even those out-of-state hunters, will be better off for it. It's going to be HUGE!

Just read this in local paper, state fish and wildlife may not know “exact numbers” but they are trying to get a count. And they are not doing it for free, someone has to pay the bills.

Researchers seek answers in the case of Northwest Montana’s disappearing elk

Researchers searched the dense underbrush for any sign of the newborn elk calf. It was important they find the young animal in the next 72 hours, before it gained full use of its gangly legs and the window for safe capture closed.
