Hunter success in southwest Montana has varied but remains close to long-term averages as the general hunting season reaches the half-way mark. Wildlife biologists with Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks have operated several check stations on weekends during the general hunting season. Biologists use check stations to collect data on hunter participation and success, as well as the species, sex and age class of the animals harvested. This supplements data collected through hunter harvest phone...

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) was recently detected in a mule deer buck that was euthanized within Baker city limits in Hunting District 705 by Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks officials on Oct. 27. FWP officials collected the deer after residents reported the buck was acting lethargic and was visibly emaciated and had droopy ears, which are classic symptoms of the disease. Earlier this week the initial test came back positive for CWD and the results of the second, confirmation test should be available next week. “We are awaiting a second test t...
We're excited to tell you about our "Visions of Chief Plenty Coups Documentary Project." Our project aims to showcase a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to tell the story of Chief Plenty Coups and his role in the inaugural ceremony of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia honoring those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. On November 9th, The Chief Plenty Coups Honor Guard from Pryor, MT, traveled to Arlington, VA, to participate in the 100th-anniversary...
In September, bovine tuberculosis (bTB) was discovered in a herd of cattle in northern Blaine County and then later in Phillips County. Bovine TB is a contagious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium bovis and primarily affects cattle. The disease can be transmitted to nearly any mammal, including humans. The Montana Department of Livestock (DOL) is the lead agency for the investigation into this finding and any epidemiologically linked cattle herds. To date, bTB has not been detected in any additional cattle herds or in wildlife in the...
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I Lord. Send me!” Isaiah 6:8 Veterans Day is about remembrance. A day to ponder the service and sacrifice of the men and women who said, “send me!” To honor those who set aside their own civil liberty, comfort, security, and for many, their lives…to unselfishly heed a higher calling. But who are these veterans? Our veterans are visible and invisible. Known and unknown. Each Veterans Day...
In honor of Veterans Day on November 11, Governor Greg Gianforte issued a proclamation declaring Montana a Hidden Heroes State to recognize military caregivers. “Montana is proudly home to one of the highest numbers of veterans per capita in the nation. We’re also home to countless military and veteran caregivers, whether they’re parents, spouses, siblings, or friends,” Gov. Gianforte said. “By proclaiming Montana a Hidden Heroes State, we’re recognizing those who are serving these vital roles in our communities.” As a Hidden Heroes state,...
Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee Chairman Jon Tester (D-Mont.) and Ranking Member Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) are championing bipartisan legislation to improve rural veterans’ access to medical disability examinations. Geography or mobility issues often limit rural and housebound veterans’ access to quality and timely medical disability examinations. The Senators’ Reform and Update Rural Access to Local (RURAL) Exams Act of 2021 aims to address this inequity by increasing transparency of the medical disability examination program and authori...

Governor Greg Gianforte issued the following statement regarding COVID-19 vaccination mandates by employers in Montana: “Despite President Biden’s efforts to mandate vaccinations for employers and their employees, Montana law remains the law of the land, and no employer in our state should use President Biden’s OSHA rule, now halted by a federal court, as a basis for imposing illegal vaccination requirements on employees.” Codified under Montana’s Human Rights Act, House Bill 702 prohibits discrimination based on an individual’s vaccination sta...
In Montana we don’t have to worry about a knock at the door at night followed by a gruff voice declaring, “This is the state police, and we want to talk to you.” Every four years we Montanans vote for our County Sheriff, the head of law enforcement for our counties. Likewise, in our local elections, we vote for city commissioners or council members and mayors who control the city police. Local control of law enforcement is a firmly established governmental principle here in Montana and in much of the rest of the nation. Even at the national lev...
The Montana Public Service Commission alerts natural gas customers that heating costs will be higher than last winter. Actions taken now can help Montanans manage higher bills. The delivery rates for natural gas service from companies regulated by the Montana PSC are not changing. However, the price of natural gas itself is driven by market conditions and the cost of natural gas is forecast to be higher due to increased global demand, coupled with limited natural gas production and inventory. “Montana’s regulated natural gas utilities, inc...
