The
new full-color guide contains statewide hunting regulations and season
information for 2012 and 2013. It also features a wide range of
hunting-related articles and other helpful information, such as
sunrise/sunset tables and detailed information on the state's wildlife
management areas.
"Printed
copies will be available for free in August anywhere hunting licenses
are sold, but hunters anxious to read up on the latest hunting
regulation changes and dates for their favorite seasons can do so today
online," said Ben Davis, information specialist and hunting guide
coordinator for the Wildlife Department. "It's an important publication
because it contains so much of the information our state's hunters need
to know in order to follow the game laws in Oklahoma. Some of the
regulation changes covered in the new "Hunting Guide" include the
expansion of black bear season, new youth deer season opportunities, new
baiting restrictions on public lands and rule changes pertaining to the
use of ATVs on Honobia Creek Wildlife Management Area.
The
migratory bird regulations portion is a draft and will not be finalized
by the USFWS and the Oklahoma Wildlife Commission until Aug. 6.
