    Please do not pick up fledglings. You are not a quirky, imaginary character looking for a fun sidekick. Even if you are, don't.

    Stop picking up fawns. You are not a Disney princess. And even if you are, don’t.

    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. fwp.mt.gov/conservation/a…

    Three invasive bighead carp, with their big heads, lay among the remains of a broken candy bar. With that, our broken trust.

    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.

    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? 📷 : jeff.n.brenner

    Update to previous posts: 10:45 a.m. - The Stillwater River is closed from White Bird Fishing Access Site to the confluence with the Yellowstone River. From Twin Bridges Road to Buffalo Mirage FAS, the public should avoid the water due to potential contaminants.
