FWP To Conduct Trophy Wildlife Auction
#1
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks has scheduled two trophy wildlife auctions in April. The auctions are Saturday, April 12, at the FWP Region 1 office in Kalispell and Saturday, April 26 at the FWP Region 3 office in Bozeman.

Non-perishable wildlife parts will be auctioned to the highest bidder, including in Kalispell deer, elk, and moose antlers, lion hides, and big horn sheep and antelope horns.

Items for auction in Bozeman will include deer and elk antlers and bighorn sheep horns.

Most items are the result of confiscations from past criminal cases, but will also include road kills, management kills or parts found in the wild.

The public will be allowed to view auction items in Kalispell beginning at 9 a.m. and bidding will start at 10 a.m. In Bozeman the viewing will begin at 11 a.m. and bidding starts at noon. Proceeds from the sale will be deposited back into the state FWP account.

The sales are authorized in state statute. FWP has donated numerous items to schools, museums and for other educational purposes, and has not conducted an auction in almost 10 years.

For more information on the auction and items available at each site, contact the FWP Region 3 office in Bozeman at: 406-994-4042, and the FWP Region 1 office in Kalispell at: 406-752-5501.
