Hunting Regulations In Montana
As any well prepared sportsmen would tell
you, having knowledge and being educated is
the first and foremost step you should take
before embarking on your hunting trip, or
truly before you even book your first
Montana Elk Hunting
trip. The Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks
Commission, in an effort to maintain the
habitats of the species native to Montana
and respectively regulate the species'
population, firmly regulates the hunting and
fishing of many different types of wildlife
found in Montana. Here we've detailed some
information on the elk hunting regulations
in Montana as of the 2008 year. Regulations
are subject to change, and you'll want to
obtain the proper documents and information
booklets available for the current year from
the
Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks commission.
In order to hunt Montana elk during the
hunting season one must first have the
proper license, and in certain cases you may
need other special types of hunting licenses
and/or certain special hunting permits. To
hunt Montana elk you'll need a big game or
elk combination license that classifies you
as either a Montana in-state resident or an
out-of-state hunter as well as specific
qualities that identify you as either
general or outfitter sponsored. Depending on
your hunting trip and needs, you'll specify
those choices.
Deadlines to apply for all
Montana Elk Hunting licenses, either the
big game (elk/deer) combination license or
the elk combination license, is March 15th.
Special elk hunting licenses (Elk A7, Elk A9
Limited, Elk A9 Unlimited) have a June 1st
application deadline and are awarded on a
special drawing basis. Per the current Elk
Hunting Regulations In Montana, a general
elk hunting license is valid for one elk and
hunters may purchase only one general elk
license.
Resident

big game.
