Hunters, it’s time to get a jump on the season—the 2026 “Deer, Elk, Antelope” and “Moose, Sheep, Goat, Bison” hunting regulations are officially live on the Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks website.
Giving them a look now is the smart move if you want to plan ahead, avoid surprises, and be fully dialed before the application period opens. Just a heads-up: for now, the regs are online only, with printed copies coming later.
Until then, grab a cup of coffee, start scheming your fall hunting plans, and check them out here: https://fwp.mt.gov/hunt/regulations
