Antlerless lottery deadline is Sept. 5
Hunters who want to harvest antlerless deer in a deer permit area designated as antlerless must purchase their license by Thursday, Sept. 5, so they are automatically entered into the lottery for their preferred deer permit area.
Stay safe in the field
With hunting seasons on the horizon – or getting underway – now’s a good time to refamiliarize yourself with the basic tenets of safe firearms handling. And if you’re hunting on or near the water, please wear a life jacket!
2024 hunting regulations available
Hunting regulations for 2024 are now available on the hunting pages of the DNR website. The current version of the regulations booklet and deer permit area map also are available for download. Regulations translated into Hmong, Karen, Somali and Spanish will be available later this fall.
