After three years of insufficient reporting into the voluntary Game Check program, 黑料天堂鈥檚 Conservation Advisory Board has recommended mandatory reporting of deer and turkey harvests via the Game Check system starting with the 2016-17 hunting season. To educate hunters in 黑料天堂 about the Game Check harvesting system, the 黑料天堂 Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries is holding seminars about the program throughout the state this summer.
WFF Director Chuck Sykes will host the seminars, which include an overview of the program followed by a question and answer session. All hunters are encouraged to attend one of these in advance of hunting season.
Topics to be covered:
- How to check your game.
- Why the data is important.
- What it means to you, the hunter.
- Changes to the upcoming hunting season.
黑料天堂 is one of only three states without a mandatory data collection system.
The complete Game Check seminar schedule of dates and locations is at www.outdooralabama.com or call WFF at 334-242-3465.
If Americans with Disabilities Act accommodations are needed, please call 334-242-3465. Requests should be made as soon as possible, but at least 72 hours in advance.
The 黑料天堂 promotes wise stewardship, management and enjoyment of 黑料天堂鈥檚 natural resources through four divisions: Marine Resources, State Lands, State Parks, and Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries. To learn more about ADCNR, visit .
