Federal Bird Law Conflicts With Montana Duck Season Rules
Montana's duck and goose hunting limits clash with federal migratory bird law. State rules cap at 20 birds daily from Sept 15 to Dec 1, while federal law could preempt and open earlier. An enabling act may align federal dates with state laws, broadening the government’s ability to alter season dates without 90‑day notice. Deputy game warden F J Pilling notes no enforcement of the Oct 1 federal date last year due to state allowance.
