We believe that GFP staff will be reporting on a survey they did in October , in cooperation with the BHNF,  looking to count beaver winter caches, so as to estimate the beaver population in the Black Hills.  They will also report on their otter survey. They will report on the Statewide Fish Management Plan Revision
