Public feedback is welcomed on items being proposed by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, including a proposal to allow the option of electronically tagging a harvested animal. “With more services transitioning to digital, we wanted to provide another option for hunters to make things more convenient during their hunting trip,” shares DWR Licensing Coordinator Lindy Varney. “We hope this new e-tagging option will help streamline the process, making animal tagging and harvest survey reporting simpler for hunters.” For electronically tagging a carcass under this new rule, a hunter would need to electronically notch the digital permit in the Utah Hunting and Fishing app to correspond with the date the animal was harvested and to provide other required information. The hunter would also need to keep the electronic harvest code in their possession. There will be a livestream of the Northeastern Utah RAC meeting on August 7th at 6pm. Online comments must be submitted by July 31st.
