Why did the Fish and Game adopt rules limiting the use of motorized vehicles while hunting?
The rules are in response to many hunters, who, over the last 10 years, requested that something be done about the increase in off-road travel, particularly by ATVs, during hunting season. Fish and Game has the authority to regulate use of motor vehicles while hunting. Landowners, including the Bureau of Land Management, United States Forest Service, Department of State Lands, and private landowners, regulate vehicle use on their property. The Fish and Game rules are an attempt to reduce conflict between hunters by limiting off-road travel.
