Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks will auction antlers the state has confiscated, mostly from poachers, over the last four years. The auction is Sept. 25 at the National Auction House in Billings.
The state donates the meat to charity, then is required to sell the antlers, horns and hides at public auction. Proceeds go to conservation and restoration programs.
These are parts of animals other than grizzly bears, including bull elk, mountain goats, big horn sheep, martins, bobcats and more.
