More Elk Hunting Opportunities Possible on Public Lands The U . S . Fish and Wildlife Service is proposing additional elk hunting opportunities on public lands in North Dakota at four national wildlife refuges .
The proposal includes an additional 100,000-plus acres at J . Clark Salyer National Wildlife Refuge ( 58,939 acres ), Upper Souris NWR ( 32,026 acres ), Lostwood NWR ( 27,331 acres ) and Des Lacs NWR ( 14,145 acres ).
If the proposal is approved after a 30- day public comment period ending Sept . 3 , hunters pursuing elk on these lands must use non-lead ammunition . The USFWS intends to finalize the proposed changes in time for the upcoming 2024-25 hunting season .

Fall is especially gorgeous in the western Dakotas , this scene a favorite , near the small town of Brien , ND just north of the Cannonball River . Western Dakota at its most appealing . Makes you just want to grab a stick and start walking .
Put Garbage Where it Belongs Outdoor recreationists are encouraged to keep it clean this fall by packing out all trash . Garbage should be placed in a proper trash receptacle . If trash cans aren ’ t available , or full , dispose of trash at home .
It ’ s not uncommon to see garbage piling up around full trash containers any time of year . Styrofoam containers are not biodegradable , but are often found wedged in cattails , drifting or washed up on shore .
