Depredation hunts require that hunters work closely with the landowner and the conservation officer. These hunts are usually very site-specific to individual farms and ranches and are conducted in close cooperation with the affected landowner s. Additionally, these hunts are very specific to the species causing the problem to the landowner. In most cases it is imperative that hunters be able to respond quickly to the call to participate in a depredation pool hunt.

With this in mind, we would ask big game depredation pool applicants to consider listing only those counties nearest where they reside in order to reduce travel time and difficulties associated with the distance from their residence to a hunt area.

Also, we would ask applicants to only select those species they are serious about shooting. Selecting for a species or county that you decline to participate in after being asked to come out and shoot, does not help Game, Fish and Parks or the affected landowner.
