Big Game Hunting & Outfitting Economic Contributions in Wyoming

Wyoming is the 10th largest in area and the least populated in the country, which translates into an abundance of huntable land. The original study conducted by Southwick Associates determined the economic contributions generated by big game hunters in 2015 in Wyoming using license sales records and custom surveys of both resident and nonresident hunters. Researchers examined not only the direct expenditures made by hunters to purchase licenses, buy gear, pay for outfitters, and other trip-related expenses such as airline tickets, gas, hotels, food, and restaurants, but also the state-wide multiplier effects of those expenses. The current effort updates the original work to reflect the 2020 hunting season by adjusting for inflation and changes in the number of unique hunters.
