New Mexico To Hold Public Bison Hunts At Fort Wingate
Nine hunters will take part in New Mexico's first public bison hunts since the herd was established about 30 years ago. The Game Commission approved two day hunts in January at Fort Wingate Military Depot near Gallup. About 60 animals remain in the herd and the state will issue three licenses per hunt. Previous reductions came from sales and auctions with no market for large male bison.
