I would like to find information on hunting lions in washington. I would eventually like to have my own pack of hounds one day if the when it is all the way legal to hunt with them. I am 20 years old i am a avid hunter and like anything to do in the outdoors. I live in eastern washington and would like to experience the chase on a lion hunt if possible.

I live in Western Wa. As of now the only way to legally hunt cougar is to put in for a drawing for limited tags in the fall of the year. The game dept has set quotas for certain Eastern Wa counties to receive an allotment of "damage control" cat hunts. These tags are for only a few counties in NE Eastern Wa (Ferry, Okanagon, Stevens, Pend Orielle, etc.). To participate in the drawing the dept says you must have your own pack . This program was only supposed to last three years and I believe this year was the third but I just read an announcement today that Eastern Wa legislators are campaigning to have this hunt on a permanent basis and even have some counties in Western Wa participate. I-655 really hosed us. They should re-name the state "Seattle" because that is where all the laws in this state are made...if it sounds like I am a bitter houndsmen its because I am. Anyway good luck with the search for some dogs...there are some good people on the site.

Welcome

Welcome, First thing you want to do is call your senator and ask them to support HB 2438, then you might get that chance to try and catch a lion..
