PIERRE, S.D. – The Game, Fish and Parks Department will host its second Antler Auction at the South Dakota Outdoor Expo in Huron on Saturday, June 9.
The auction will take place as part of the 5th Annual South Dakota Outdoor Expo at the State Fairgrounds. The gates open at 9 a.m., and the auction will begin at 10 a.m. in the Fairgrounds Expo Building.
Antlers make up the bulk of auction items, with hundreds of deer antlers and racks offered to bidders. Other items to be auctioned off include mountain lion hides, mountain lion skulls, elk antlers, bighorn sheep racks and more.
“We have an amazing variety of items for auction that should be attractive to taxidermists, hunters, outdoor craft people, and outdoor enthusiasts in general,” said GFP’s Andy Alban.
The auction will be handled by Schuetzle Auction Service.
More information on items that will be offered at the auction will be available prior to the event on the GFP website.
