Black Bear The warm and dry winter has left much more country snow free than usual. Green up has begun to appear in the lower elevations. The mild weather will have bears out and more active in the early part of the season. Look for bears close to timber stringers feeding on open ridges. Successful hunters need to remember to check in their bear within ten days of harvest. It cannot be frozen and propping open the mouth will help in aiding tooth collection later. Turkey season is here. Look for spring turkeys to be moving from wintering grounds to their nest- ing areas. Listen for males to be calling early and late in the evenings to help locate gobblers. With snow levels higher than normal expect turkeys to be at slightly higher elevations this year. Cougars can be found throughout Baker County but hunters should target areas with high con- centrations of deer and elk. Setting up on a fresh kill or using distress calls can all be productive techniques. Hunters are required to check in the hide of any cougar taken, with skull and proof of sex attached. Remember to pick up a 2015 tag. Coyote numbers are good throughout the district. Try calling in early morning and late afternoon. Remember to ask for permission before hunting on private properties. GRANT COUNTY The P.W. Schneider Wildlife area is closed February 1st through April 14th. Herbicide application to stop spread of invasive annual grasses is happening on the wildlife area, more information. BLACK BEAR: Most of our snow is gone from mid and low elevation areas of the district, roads can be easily accessed.

The animals will feed off and on during all daylight hours and patience is the order of the day when spotting spring bears. Hunters are reminded all bears are required to be checked in within 10 days of harvest. TURKEY numbers have been on the rise for the past few years in the district. Most of our snow is gone from mid and low elevation areas of the district. By opening day the turkeys will begin to move from their wintering areas up into QHVWLQJDUHDV7KHEHVWVWUDWHJ\IRU¿QGLQJWKHP this time of year is to travel the forest roads or hike into areas where turkeys might be and call for them or just listen for their calls early in the morning. Cougar hunting remains open. Successful hunters should remember that check-in of the hide with skull and proof of sex attached is mandatory; see the regulations for details. Remember to pick up a 2015 tag. Coyote numbers are good in most of the district. Coyotes may respond to distress calls. Try calling in the early morning and late evening. MORROW, GILLIAM AND WHEELER COUNTIES TURKEY numbers have been rising slightly in the district. All our snow is gone from the tim- bered parts of the district. Turkeys have mostly moved up into the forest from their wintering areas. This year’s very mild winter has allowed turkeys to disperse throughout the forest. Season closes May 31. Cougar hunting is open. Cougar are well distrib- uted in our forested areas. Calling with distress calls or cougar vocalizations can be effective. However, locating a fresh, naturally made kill has the best chance of success. The Coyote population is healthy with good numbers of coyotes available for those who wish to pursue them. Watch wind direction to help prevent giving away your location. Calling with game distress calls can be very successful. UMATILLA COUNTY Bears are distributed along forested stringer areas throughout the mid elevations of Umatilla County. Upper elevation forest roads are accessible from numerous access points throughout the county, thus providing earlier access to those timbered stringers amongst the mid elevations. Foraging bears can be observed by glassing open hill slopes with a south/southwestern aspect. Earlier in the season bears can be observed throughout the day. Bear numbers are increasing as we enter into May and should persist until the end of the season. Hunters are reminded all bears are required to be checked in within 10 days of harvest. Season closes May 31. Turkeys are scattered throughout the forested areas of Umatilla County, look for turkeys along ridge tops crossing between drainages. Listen for gobbling turkeys within early hours of daylight from atop high elevation spots above those drainages. Less than average snow levels have provided earlier access to upper elevations. Cougar are well distributed in forested areas of the Walla Walla, Mt. Emily, and Ukiah units. Hunters will KDYHEHVWVXFFHVVE\¿QGLQJDIUHVKQDWXUDOO\PDGH kill and sitting on it, or by using predator calls. Some success has come from following tracks until the cougar is located. Coyote are numerous throughout the County and hunters should have good success calling. Remember to ask permission before hunting on private lands. UNION COUNTY Bear numbers are strong in all of Union County DQGKXQWHUVKDYHDJRRGFKDQFHRI¿OOLQJDWDJ Look for bears on open South slopes. Access to national forest lands should be excellent due to the light snow pack this winter. Many forest roads will be soft with early snow melt, take care not to cause unnecessary ruts. Turkey numbers look good in Union County and FKDQFHVRI¿QGLQJD*REEOHUVKRXOGEHEHWWHUWKDQ last year. Hunters will increase their chances of VXFFHVVE\VWD\LQJRXWLQWKH¿HOGDOOGD\:DONLQJ into hunting areas that are not reachable by vehicles can produce enjoyable, uninterrupted hunts. Birds are well distributed by midseason. Cougars are common in Union County. Focus on game rich areas with long ridgelines or saddles that cats typically travel.
