This is a nationwide struggle. Today, our aquatic invasive species team here in Montana discovered two invasive American bullfrogs hiding inside a snickers bar. Parents, please check and clean-drain-dry your kid’s candy.

Parents, now is the time to be on guard. We are once again reminding you to be diligent about checking your child's candy throughout the Halloween season. Our biologists have just found THREE invasive bighead carp rolled up and shoved inside an almond joy. We are appalled.
If you do go out, please remember to recreate responsibly. This is Montana FWP's fisheries recommended 6' of safe social distancing. #406feet#COVID19MT#Fishtancing
The Bald Eagle is one of the most recognizable North American birds. It can be challenging to recognize juvenile & immature plumages and difficult to claffify bird’s specific age. Can you guess their ages?

From Twin Bridges Road to Buffalo Mirage FAS, the public should avoid the water due to potential contaminants.
FWP's aviation unit has been stocking high mountain lakes all week! They just finished a flight up to Tranquil Basin stocking westslope cutthroat trout. West Tranquil Basin Lake got 7500 fish, and East Tranquil Basin Lake got 1500.
