Other Considerations
Riding or driving OHVs or other vehicles off designated trails can damage fragile ecosystems and introduce invasive weeds that threaten native plants and food for wildlife.
Ethical vs unethical shed hunting
Before you make the move to disturb or push animals to access shed country, take a moment to think of how your actions affect our wildlife and wild places.
- Game animals expend a great deal of energy in the winter just to survive and make it to spring.
- Conserving that energy in the winter and early spring is critical to survival.
- Walking through critical winter range and spooking animals puts them at risk of becoming too weak to survive or produce young.
