Idaho Fish and Game - Hunting
Idaho has some of the best and most varied hunting in the west! From the trophy species of moose, bighorn sheep and mountain goat to the more often hunted deer (mule deer AND whitetails), elk and antelope, Idaho covers it all.
We hunt black bear and mountain lions too, and a variety of upland game, turkeys and waterfowl.
Licenses and tags are available over the counter for almost every species.
The state is two-thirds public land and a new Fish and Game program called Access Yes! is opening up more private land every year.

Division of Migratory Bird Management - Avian Influenza in Wild Birds
The purpose of this document is to bring together in one location some of the more informative Web sites having information specific to avian influenza in wild birds. Avian influenzas of many different strains have long been known to occur naturally in wild birds, particularly waterfowl and shorebirds. These viruses normally circulate in wild bird populations, but rarely cause mortality. Long a focus of concern by the poultry industry as a source of influenza infections in domestic stock, the influenza strains that infect wild birds was not known to infect humans until recently. Since 1997, the highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus has emerged as a source of mortality in wild birds, domestic poultry, and humans in southeast Asia. The precise roles played by migratory birds in the spread of H5N1 and its transmittal to domestic poultry and humans remain uncertain and continue to be debated by experts.
Although not a primary focus of this site, we also provide major links to Other Aspects of Avian Influenza (specifically H5N1 in humans and domestic poultry) and to PandemicFlu.gov, “the official U.S.
government Web site for information on pandemic flu and avian influenza.” .
Fly Fishing in West Virginia with Pocahontas Fish and Game Adventures - Marlinton, West Virginia
Welcome to Pocahontas Fish & Game Adventures Welcome to our website and, perhaps, to our place sometime in the future.
Author John Gierach called one of his fly fishing books Another Lousy Day in Paradise and that same paradise is what we think we have to offer.
About eight years ago, three fishing buddies bought a swampy half-mile cow pasture bottom with potential.
It was mostly infested with Multiflora rose bushes but had a trout stream running through it that one of the buddies used to sneak into as a kid to fish.
Since the purchase, we have reclaimed the land, installed nearly thirty stream habitat improvement structures, and developed four trout ponds and additional wetland.
Now, we are making our little piece of paradise available on a limited basis to other fly fishermen/women who appreciate the privacy and seclusion of what we have here in the 'birthplace of rivers' of Pocahontas County, West Virginia.
As the end of our seventh year of having guests at our creek approaches, we want to thank all for a wonderful spring and summer season.
Over the past several years about half of those visiting are first timers who all have found the facilities everything they hoped and more.
