Adding to his pro-hunter reputation, Interior Department Secretary Ryan Zinke issued an order Friday to expand big-game hunting access across the western U.S.
Zinke signed the order while attending the Western Conservation and Hunting Expo in Salt Lake City.
The order will “improve wildlife management and conservation and expand opportunities for big game hunting by improving priority habitats within important and migration corridors acrosscthe West,” according to a department press release.
The Interior statement said “priority” states for the new measure would include Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming.
