Unit 481 is in central Montana, with the town of Winnett as its south boundary and the Missouri River as its north boundary. Antelope can be found scattered throughout the unit. The population of antelope in this district has been impacted by a disease outbreak in 2009, and it has taken some time for the area to recover. However, the numbers are now stable and showing slight increases.
