WYOMING CRAVES ANTELOPE
HUNTERS PROM TEXAS
AUSTIN—Wyoming needs out-
side help to reduce an overpopula-
tion of prong-horned antelope, re-
ports Lester Bagley, Wyoming
Game and Fish Commissioner, in
a letter to the Executive Screetary
of the Texas Game and Fish Com-
mission.
Bagley writes that Wyoming is
faced with the problem of reduc-
ing its antelope herd by approxi-
mately 40,000 head, and adds: “We
are soliciting your cooperation in
sending as many of your (Texas)
hunters as you can to hunt ante-
lope in Wyoming.”
The Wyoming request coincided
with the Texas Game and Fish
Commission’s decision to close the
season on Texas antelope this year
because of severe herd losses from
drought.
The Wyoming season varies in
different areas. The earliest open-
ing is September 1; latest closing
date is October 14. The season
limit is one antelope in all except
the Northeastern Area where two
may be taken with two permits.
Out-of-state permits cost $25 each.
Further information may be secur-
ed by writing the Wyoming Game
and Fish Commission, Box 335,
Cheyenne, Wyoming.
If the letter is to serve as an
application for a permit, the $25
fee should be enclosed. The appli-
cant also should give his age, phy-
sical description and designate the
area in which he wishes to hunt.
Permits are issued only for one of
the 16 specified areas.
Season dates in most areas are
either September 3-15, September
15-22 or September 3 to October3.
HoweveP, the season in the big
Northeastern Area, where permits
for two antelope may be secured,
is from September 20 to October
14. ,
Deer also may be taken in the
Northeastern Area where the sea-
sons partially overlap. Deer per-
mits are $20 each.
