Hello All,
Been streaming old seasons/episodes on game wardens in Montana, called Yellowstone Wardens.
Those guys and gals are really busy, or so it seems. . . they keep a really tight rein on everything!
Any body else been keeping up with this series?
Thanks,
Doug Lee

Yes,
Yesterday they took 4 or 5 mule deer, from various hunters.
Not sure why.

I watched one season of one of the Montana wardens shows and found it fascinating because I recognized the places and many of the wardens themselves. I’m sure they don’t show every interaction but I thought they came
Off pretty well… it was a little dramatized but the level of ignorance displayed by many of the hunters was astonishing.

I watch it often. I don't always like some of the drama but I agree with the previous poster. Some of the hunters are idiots and there's not a nicer way to say it.
I don't agree with some of the resolutions either and confiscation of animals over an honest mistake. (That said I don't know how you can hang an animal in camp or get it loaded and forget to tag it.) Sometimes a Warden comes off as being on a power trip but most seem fair.

I've seen all the shows from other states too. Some are interesting some are not. I think New Hampshire wardens have way too much free time on their hands. Seems like they investigate every deer and turkey kill in the state and find something wrong most of the time.
I'll also add are most of the people that hike that mountain that clumsy. They're always doing rescues which I don't find interesting.

They interfered with peoples legal hunts.In one episode two moose hunters on the last day of the hunt could have shot a bull moose but the wardens would not get out of the way so the hunters could shoot.

All the TV shows have to insert drama as that's what some people like to see. The shows are most likely filmed to make hunters look mean and heartless.

I have watched a couple through the years, not ant lately. I'm glad we have wardens they get very few of the law-breaking outdoorsmen, but everyone caught is a good thing. If you are doing things legal nothing to worry about and the few I have seen, they always give the person the benefit of the doubt. I also know a few of the wardens and places that are being used for the TV show. I'm not a fan of the show and don't go out of my way to ever watch it.

As far as the show, it is made for TV so that is what it is entertainment.

It appears to me that during the few episodes of the various insert name here Wardens shows that it is like they are geared toward the ANTI everything crowd. Not in all cases, but enough to get me to stop watching…

I didn't like the Maine one either. Montana was ok, but Texas Law was the best!

I've watched almost every episode of Yellowstone Wardens. Most of the wardens on there are pretty decent except for that one guy. He treats everyone he stops as law breakers and seems disappointed if he can't find some infraction of the law.


My wife wants me to wear a bracelet that belonged to her grandfather. It says, "Do Not Resuscitate".
