Special Considerations**
You may encounter collared mountain goats in the hunt area. The Department asks hunters to avoid harvesting collared animals if possible. Goats wearing orange or blue collars are known nannies (females) and goats wearing black collars are known billies (males). If you harvest a collared goat, you must turn in the collar to the Palmer or Anchorage ADFG office.
