Take The Online Grizzly Bear Tests
« on: August 24, 2011, 06:53:40 PM »
Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming all have grizzlies in varying numbers. If you plan to hunt black bear in northern Washington or in Idaho, Montana, or Wyoming, be safe and take the grizzly bear tests and review the Bear Identification programs. In NE Washington and in Montana you must pass their test before you can bear hunt.

MY ADVICE
Take all three tests and do the Idaho Identification program, hopefully you can avoid accidentally shooting a grizzly bear when out bear hunting. The hassles and possible fines for anyone accidentally shooting a grizzly are tremendous!

Washington Test
https://fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov/#/login
(you will find the bear test in your profile area, click on "Mandatory Species Identification Tests")

Idaho Bear Identification Program
https://idfg.idaho.gov/hunt/bear-info/overview

Montana Test

Wyoming

Good luck hunting!

Nice. I like seeing helpful posts. I got two wrong. I called 2 blonde phased black bear grizzlies. I am pretty boozed up, though.  :)

Take it again until you get 100%, the best insurance there is to not make a mistake.  :twocents:

I take it every year as a reminder and have all my guides do the same...  :tup:

 :yeah: I missed two but I thought they were Grizzlies and not black bears. So pretty good for me since I just went straight to the test and I don't hunt bears.
