I know this is probably a stupid question, but I can't find the answer anywhere on the state wildlife website. Do you need a permit to hunt squirrels here? Are there any protected species, or are they unprotected like jacks and coyotes? Thanks

Editted, I have gone over each of the species listed on the DWR web site and came up with nothing. I am wondering if it has changed, as I checked into it a few years ago and found something about a squirrel in northwestern Utah being protected, maybe the Beldings Ground Squirrel??? Anyway, it obviously isn't anymore. Which is good, I know where a bunch of them are and just got 10000 rounds of .22lr ammo last month. Come on spring!!!!!! |

From both the furbearer and falconry guidebooks: "(b) "Protected wildlife" does not include coyote, field mouse, gopher, ground squirrel, jack rabbit, muskrat, and raccoon." So for those cases there's no limit, but you probably do want to double check with someone at the DWR. |
