This week on the Montana Outdoor Podcast, host Downrigger Dale sits down with Montana FWP Wildlife Manager Cory Loecker to dive deep into what hunting season will look like in North Central Montana (Region 4). Cory spills all the details on the health of elk, deer, and antelope herds, and even lets us know the best spots to find them. Spoiler alert: things are looking great! But that’s not all – Cory also gives the lowdown on black bears, mountain lions, waterfowl, upland game birds, and even wolves and turkeys. If it moves in Region 4, they covered it! They also talk hunting access, challenges in the region, and some cool success stories from wildlife management efforts. Oh, and Rigger even got Cory to reveal his favorite game to hunt! If you want to be ahead of the pack this season, give the full episode a listen and load up on all the insider info!  Until tomorrow, you can check out this sneak peek here:
