Show Elk Hunters Asked To Study New Hunting Regulations Elk hunters going afield Saturday Sat-urday should be cognizant of new regulations that govern transporting of big game, according ac-cording to John Nagel, chief of law enforcement for the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. Big game which has been legally leg-ally taken may be transported transpor-ted within the state by someone some-one other than the license holder, hold-er, provided the animal is properly pro-perly tagged and accompanied by the hunting license and permit per-mit belonging to the individual who took the animal, and writ-en writ-en authorization listing data and location of kill, sex and species, irigin and desination of transportation, name of hunter harvesting the animal, and name of the individual tranportating the animal. Nagel advised successful hunters to pack their elk where they are easy to get to for the trip home in case they run into in-to a roadblock. "Having the animal where it's easy for conservation con-servation officers to check will save both hunter and officer time and frustation," said Nagel. The law enforcement head also reminds sportsmen that licenses and permits are not transferrable. "Conservation officers will be particularly alert al-ert that the person with the permit is the one carrying the firearms, and that persons does his own harvesting," said Nagel. |
