Be Bear Aware!
From Center
for Wildlife Information
featuring the "Be Bear Aware" and "Wildlife
Stewardship" websites!
Hunters must be able to tell the difference
between a grizzly and a black bear because grizzly bears
cannot be legally hunted in Montana! In fact, there is a
new mandatory bear identification testing required to purchase
a black bear license.
Three simple rules will help you make the
right decision.
1. Learn how to identify bears.
2. Be absolutely sure of your
target.
3. If in doubt, DON'T SHOOT!
