The daily bag limit of seven ducks and mergansers shall not include in the aggregate more than one canvasback, two redheads or three pintails. Seven mallards may be taken per day, but only one can be a hen. The possession limit is two daily bag limits.
HUNTERS: There has historically been a large imbalance in the sex ratio of mallards, with up to 2/3 of mallards being drakes. The result has been reduced production of young mallards, harassment of hens by gangs of drakes, and disruption of nesting. Increased harvest of drakes and reduced harvest of hens would greatly improve this situation. While it is legal to harvest one hen mallard, we urge hunters to voluntarily avoid harvesting hens so that there will be a decrease in the male/hen sex ratio. This will benefit both mallards and hunters.
HUNTERS PLEASE NOTE: To increase duck hunting opportunity, the Central Flyway has been divided into 2 zones for the 1997-98 season. Please refer to the season dates for the zone in which you are hunting.
ZONE 1 includes Converse, Goshen, Hot Springs, Natrona, Platte, and Washakie Counties; and that portion of Park County outside the Shoshone National Forest Boundary and more than 3 miles south of the Montana state line.
ZONE 2 includes Albany, Big Horn, Campbell, Crook, Fremont, Johnson, Laramie, Niobrara, Sheridan, Weston Counties; that portion of Carbon County east of the Continental Divide; that portion of Park County within the Shoshone National Forest Boundary, and that portion of Park County less than 3 miles from the Montana state line.
