The R657-3 form is a critical document for those seeking to possess fallow deer, caribou (reindeer), or muskox within Utah, demonstrating the intersection of wildlife management and regulatory compliance. Managed by the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources, this form serves various purposes—from facilitating personal enjoyment to endorsing commercial exploitation of these specified animals. Applicants must provide detailed information, including their intent regarding the animals' final disposition, ensuring full transparency and alignment with wildlife conservation principles. The form requires specifics about the location where the animals will be held, underscoring the importance of suitable habitats in ethical wildlife management. Additionally, it necessitates information on the supplier of the animals, highlighting the controlled and legal sources for obtaining wildlife. Importantly, the application process mandates acknowledgment of, and compliance with, other potentially applicable federal, state, or local regulations, reflecting the multifaceted nature of wildlife law. With a modest nonrefundable handling fee, the process underscores the commitment required from prospective registrants, making clear that paying the fee does not guarantee approval. The thoroughness with which applicants must fill out the R657-3 form illustrates the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources' dedication to ensuring only qualified individuals or entities engage in the possession of these unique species, thereby balancing human interests with the welfare of wildlife.
