What is the Montana falconers association?
The Montana Falconers Association (MFA) is an organization comprised of licensed falconers and supporters in the state of Montana. Falconry is a hunting sport that involves the taking of wild quarry with a trained bird of prey (hawk, falcon, eagle, or owl) and requires a high level of knowledge and skill in both hunting and animal husbandry and handling techniques. For more details on the regulations and processes for obtaining a falconry license in Montana, please download the Montana Falconry Guidelines
