Associated Press0

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — The state Game, Fish and Parks Department says South Dakota residents who want to have a say in how the state manages its elk population can still share their input.

The department’s Division of Wildlife released a draft of its five-year elk management plan to the public in December. The department says residents wanting to comment on the plan still have until March 22 to review the final draft.

Division of Wildlife Director Tony Leif says there’s “large interest” in the plan and the state wants to give the public enough time to comment before it’s adopted by the Game, Fish and Parks Commission in April.
