Mendocino County has a diverse and abundant selection of game, with quail, wild turkey, elk, bear, pig and
blacktail deer among other species. The County also offers sportsmen many different choices when it comes to where to
hunt. There is public land available for hunting, and most of it holds trophy-class game. There are also opportunities to
hunt on private land for a fee.
For local information and to pick up supplies, there are many outdoor stores and suppliers in the Ukiah area. Stock up
on boots, bows, guns, tents and any other equipment you might need, and ask the employees to share their favorite local
spots. Unless specifically prohibited, public lands managed by the BLM are open to hunting, fishing and recreational
shooting, including target shooting for license-holders.
