The Natural Resources Board approved a three zone open turkey hunt next spring with 120 permits in Zone 1 and 150 in zones 2 and 10 per period, plus 100 in Zone 9, while zones 3 through 8 stay closed. The plan removes eastern Zone 4 elk from turkey hunting and authorizes one bearded turkey per hunter. A three year antlerless deer special hunt was approved to reduce overpopulation and crop damage, with a 30 percent permit set aside for landowners and a shift from Hunter's Choice to a new limited antlerless permit system to improve landowner relations and reduce crowding.
