Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks (Montana FWP) recently announced that the 24-hour waiting period is no longer required after purchasing a black bear hunting license per the Montana Legislature.

However, the 2021 Black Bear Regulations booklet contains language about a requirement for hunters to wait 24 hours after the bear license is issued to hunt bears. This is no longer accurate and is outdated.
