In what states are these tags transferable to others, including non-residents.

Question includes tags for ranchers where elk are eating their hay.

Colorado is one.

In Nevada, the rancher is allotted the tags to sell to whom he pleases...usually to a guide, who in turn sells the tag and hunt as a package to his clients.

New Mexico

Utah as well. My brother-in-law gets 10 mitigation tags every year for the elk raiding his hay fields in Ibapah.

I think Colorado requires the tags be transferred directly from the Landowner to the Recipient, to prevent auction sales of a public resource. But in reality, Guides and Outfitters will act as brokers between the two parties in under-the-table deals.

I took an antelope in CO on a landowner tag, the outfitter worked with landowners and the tags came from the land owner to the hunter through the outfitter.

Wyoming is now issuing depredation landowner permits.

It's under the radar right now but is happening.

Several years ago PA started to issue depredation permits to land owners that may b issued to hunters.

The one and only landowner tag that I received was for deer, and that was several years ago. But it wasn't a license. It was a paper that allowed me to go the the D.O.W. office and buy a license in the farmer's unit, which was sold out.

Wyoming landowners can not transfer their permits.

We get landowner tags for elk in New Mexico and sell them, same as antelope. Our Colorado deer tags are similar.

Pretty sure the Wyoming auxiliary hunts are for specific ranches or areas, and not issued to the LO but to hunters on the Aux. hunt list.
Happens every year is certain areas. WG&F calls the hunters when an issue comes up and they must claim the licenses then or the next person on the list gets called.
And yes, LOs in Wyoming can not transfer their tags.

Wrong.

There is a mountain of bullshit going on with the issuing of auxiliary tags. The tags are being transferred and sold by landowners.

^^^ Interesting, hadn't heard that.
Looks like a way to get a hunt in then.

I've had a couple hunts from Ranchers/Landowners tags too. In fact, anymore, I have found it more satisfying to use these hunts. I'm older, need the help anyway, have not carried a heavy pack since my Army days! ha. Plus, they can put you on the game, you still have to be able to shoot, but there is not a hundred people all around you in Blaze Orange when you do!

Idaho's apparently more stingy with LO tags than other states appear to be. They're only available when the owner has at least 650 acres within a controlled hunt area. There are some other stipulations on land ownership, too. The owner can then apply for a designated LO tag for that hunt. At the time of application for the tag, the LO can designate who the tag will go to if drawn but once it's drawn, it can't be changed.
