Question:
Last fall I was driving home at night after a bear hunt and still had an unfilled bear tag. I noticed a huge bear laying beside the highway that had been struck and killed. Could I have stopped and tagged that bear?

Answer:
You can only tag a bear that you have taken by legal means. The vehicle is still an illegal method of take.

Idaho

Question:
I see a headline about ultralights in the "What's New" section on page 4 of the new big game regs but nothing on the page about them. What gives?

Answer:
Oops. The language on ultralights was removed from page 4 (but its headline was inadvertently left in place). Ultralights have been defined as aircraft by the Fish and Game Commission. Aircraft may not be used in the act of hunting in Idaho.
