Idaho Fish and Game is seeking comments on its draft Idaho Black Bear Management Plan for 2025-2030. The plan will provide guidance for staff to implement management actions that will aid in the protection and management of black bear populations and guide harvest recommendations.
People should review the draft plan and provide comments by 5 p.m. Dec. 3. The final draft of the plan will be presented to the Fish and Game Commission for consideration at its January 2025 meeting.
The plan identifies issues that affect black bears and their management, guides Fish and Game in annual work plan development and program prioritization while providing direction for development of season recommendations. The plan will also provide guidance to implement programs that support black bear conservation and management.
