Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, Minnesota, National Hunting, National News, News /

The Minnesota DNR has completed its third and final “spy blind” report on hunter conduct and compliance during the special early teal season, and its findings for 2023 were unchanged from the past two years.
“Overall, the five-day experimental teal season in 2023 was again successful,” Steve Cordts, Minnesota DNR waterfowl staff specialist, wrote in the report. “The attempt rates and take of non-teal remained well below thresholds for an operational teal season.”

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, National Hunting, National News, News, Pennsylvania /

Pennsylvania’s statewide regular firearms season for bears came to a close Nov. 21. Hunters in the traditional north-central and northeastern bear counties did well, but less so in non-traditional counties such as Huntingdon and Somerset.
Thus far this year, just 26 bears have been shot in Huntingdon County, and only 31 bears in Somerset County. These two counties have sometimes posted harvests of over 100 bears.
