DNR encourages deer hunters to use late season opportunities

Deer hunters are encouraged to take advantage of late season opportunities. The late muzzleloader season runs until Wednesday, the statewide antlerless-only hunt takes place December 11th through the 14th and there’s an antlerless-only holiday hunt from December 24th until January 1st. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources says hunters can use any unfilled antlerless harvest authorizations during any of those hunts, but they must be used in certain zones. Any harvested deer must be registered electronically by 5 p.m. the day after recovery. More info can be found on the DNR’s website.
