Uintah, Daggett, and Duchesne counties are on the list released Wednesday where target shooting with a firearm is temporarily restricted on Wildlife Management Areas, citing drought conditions and severe wildfire concerns. “Because wildfires can destroy essential wildlife habitat, this temporary restriction will help protect Utah’s wildlife management areas during the extreme fire danger conditions Utah is currently experiencing,” shares DWR Director Riley Peck.
