A pheasant hunt open only to hunters age 17 and under is scheduled to take place on the Yellowtail Wildlife Habitat Management Area near Lovell from Friday, November 19 through Sunday, November 21.
“During this three-day timeframe, pheasant hunting is restricted to youth only on all lands contained within the Yellowtail Wildlife Habitat Management Area north of the Shoshone River,” the Wyoming Game and Fish Department explained.
The youth-only hunt has been expanded to three days for the first
time. In previous years, only one day per season was set aside for youth
hunters, according to Game and Fish.
“By reconfiguring the
dates of the youth hunt, birds brought in and released from the Sheridan
Bird Farm will be more available to youth hunters and should provide a
better opportunity for youth to harvest birds over a three-day period,
versus only Saturday as it was before,” Lovell Game Warden Dillon Herman
said.
