The Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks toll-free hotline for reporting wildlife poaching, property damage, and violations of fish and game laws is in operation 24 hours a day.

TIP-MONT is the acronym for Turn In Poachers—Montana. Some obvious signs of poaching include:

hunting out of season or at night using spotlights

taking more than one’s legal limit  

nonresidents who purchase resident licenses

professional and commercial poachers who illegally offer outfitter and guide services.

When it comes to poaching, Montanans are saying, ’enough is enough!’ If you witness a fish and game violation, or property vandalism, report the crime

by calling 1-800-TIP-MONT (1-800-847-6668). Callers can ask to remain anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward.
