Title: Importing game to Washington
Post by: CarbonHunter on September 02, 2023, 08:11:02 AM

Does anyone know the reason why you are required to notify the WDFW within 10 days of importing a cougar or bear harvested in another state?

I understand their reason for deboning deer and other species because of CWD but I’m drawing a blank on the reason for bear and cougars.
