BISON
Utah Hunting Opportunities
The Henry Mountains and Book Cliffs bison herds originated from Yellowstone National Park and were first introduced into San Rafael Desert in 1941. They have since flourished.
In the United States there are 13 free-ranging bison herds and Utah has four of them. These animals are eligible for entry in the Boone & Crockett, Pope and Young and Longhunter record books. Utah’s State Record bison, killed in 2012, measured 129 6/8” which would place it as the 15th largest bison ever harvested!
Hunting wild, free-range buffalo can be challenging and it takes place in some of the prettiest county Utah has to offer. Sometimes you can shoot one close to the road and others may require horses for removal of your trophy.
