As I understand it this case involved a poacher from the Crow tribe killing several elk and other species out of season, out of his state, and on National Forest land. His defense cited that the Crow tribe treaty says they have an unabridged right to hunt on uninhabited lands.
Does this decision mean crow members can now hunt throughout the USA on National forest lands 365 days a year?

“The court sided with Herrera and found that the treaty with the tribe did not expire when Wyoming became a state in 1890. They also ruled against Wyoming's argument that Bighorn National Forest, where Herrera was hunting, was not "unoccupied lands" as required under the treaty.”
