There are 31 harvest object ive units in Utah. When buying t heir permit, Utah residents can choose two units to hunt. Nonresidents can choose three units. There are three main ways in which harvest objective units differ from traditional limited entry units, saysSuzette Fowlks, information specialist with the Division of Wildlife Resources. There is no limit to the number of permits that may be sold for each unit and hunters may purchase them she said The hunt on each harvest objective unit may close before the official end of the season, however, ifthe number of cougars to be taken on the unit is met. For example, if the objective is to take lOcougars on a unit, the hunt on the unit closes when 10 cougars are taken, even if the end of the season hasnt been reached. During the season, hunters may exchange their harvest objective permit for a permit to hunt a different unit. A $5 handling fee is charged for each exchange and the permit is not valid until the day after the exchange r, is made. All exchanges must be made at a Division of Wildlife Resources office. The 2002 - 2003 cougar season begins Dec. 14 on most ofUtahs harvest objective units. Hunters should study the 2002 Utah .Cougar Proclamation to choose their harvest objective units, Fowlks said. "Unit descriptions begin on page 13. Proclamations are available from hunting and fishing license agents statewide, Division of Wildlife and the DWR's Internet Website (www.wildlife.utah.gov). Following the lead of other western states, Utah established harvest objective units in 1996 as one way to help speed the recovery of Utahs deer herds. Through the sale of an unlimited number of permits, the units help speed Utahs deer herd recovery by increasingchances that a set number of cougars can be taken on units where deer herds are facing their toughest challenge. Before each hunting trip hunters 1 must call (5466) to verify their harvest objective unit is still open to hunting. The phone line is updated by 8 p.m. daily, providing hunters with closure information for the next days hunt.
