Big game hunters must call in reports |
October 20, 2016 |
By Mike Demick

Fish and Game's online hunter reports have
unfortunately been a casualty of the data breach
of our online vendor's database, but hunters can
still file their reports by calling the
toll-free number at (877) 268-9365.
Reporting is quick and easy, and when you file
your report, you give critical hunt and harvest
information, which directly affects decisions
about next year’s hunting seasons. Every person
who purchased a license and big game tag this
year is asked to file a report, even if they did
not go hunting.
Fish and Game discontinued online sales on
August 24 after being informed by Active
Network, the Texas-based company that its
database was breached. Fish and Game officials
said online sales will not resume until a
third-party cybersecurity firm completes an
investigation and certifies that the system is
secure.
When that happens, online hunter reports will
also resume. |
