Arizona Game & Fish Department Expo 2017

The department will auction off its annual collection of wildlife assets at the Expo. Sets of antlers, hides, skulls and head mounts, as well as wildlife artwork and taxidermy - all seized during law enforcement investigations, obtained from animals killed in vehicle collisions, or acquired through donations - will be put on the auction block both days. Funds generated from the auction are used to purchase equipment and technology used in the investigation of wildlife crimes and to protect the state's wildlife resources.

Concessionaires will have food and beverages available for purchase, and many accept only cash - ATMs will be on site. There is a nominal charge for ammunition at some of the target shooting venues.

Expo hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday. The Outdoor Expo is easy to find, located on Carefree Highway, about 1/2 mile west of I-17 in Phoenix. More specifically, it's at 4044 W. Black Canyon Blvd, Phoenix (exit I-17 at Carefree Highway).
