hunting restrictions
Wildlife harvest regulations
Hunting restrictions are regulations limiting when, where, and how wildlife may be hunted.
These typically include seasonal limits, bag limits on the number of animals taken, licensing requirements, and prohibited methods or weapons.
Restrictions aim to prevent overhunting and maintain sustainable populations: The state tightened hunting restrictions on deer after population surveys showed declining numbers.
