The Utah Wildlife Board has approved a higher bag limit and a longer duck and goose hunting season for this fall.
The Game, Fish and Parks Commission rejected nearly all proposed changes aimed at expanding South Dakota's non-resident waterfowl license system, something many hunters in the state have pushed against.
Visitors can walk through a man-made cypress swamp, go bowling or shoot arrows at the archery range. A 105-room hotel designed like a hunting lodge has balconies overlooking the indoor swamp. There are also live ducks, alligators and fish.

Groups like Ducks Unlimited and Pheasants Forever urged lawmakers to spend more money to support outdoor projects.
