Protecting Roadless Areas for Hunting and Fishing

Idaho's roadless areas provide some of the finest elk habitat and longest center-file rifle seasons in the West, and hunters and anglers are working to protect these areas from a proposal to rescind their conservation rule. Roadless areas are crucial for providing habitat for threatened and endangered species, supplying drinking water, and offering happy hunting grounds for hunters and anglers. With 25 percent of threatened and endangered species found in these areas, it's essential to preserve them for future generations.
