Black bear season ends June 15
Starting June 1, black bear seasons in several bear management units will be subject to a new quota process for the remaining two weeks of the season.
Following regulations passed by the Fish and Wildlife Commission in February, black bear season in BMUs 100, 101, 103, 104, 110, 120, 121, 122, 123, 140, 141, 150, 170, 300, 301, 319, 400 and 580 are subject to close if the cumulative spring harvest exceeds 37 percent female black bears.
Many other BMUs have specific female harvest quotas, which will prompt a closure if met before June 15. Hunters can check the current quota status here.
