Electronic Hunting Quota Applications To Be Accepted Starting Saturday

Beginning Saturday, June 1, hunters can apply electronically for quota hunts including youth, deer, alligator, waterfowl, dove and many others, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division (WRD).  

 

Tina Johannsen, Assistant Chief of the Game Management Section with the Wildlife Resources Division says quota hunts are a great way to experience a high-quality hunt on your favorite Wildlife Management Area or try out a new area you haven’t been to yet.

 

A quota hunt is a scheduled event at a Wildlife Management Area or other state-managed property where a limited number of hunters are allowed. 

 

 Quota levels, such as the number or type of hunters that can participate and the harvest limit, are based upon the sound principles of wildlife management and public desires for a quality hunt.  

 

The hunts provide a challenging and rewarding experience to hunters of all levels.  Selected hunters must be properly licensed to participate in a quota hunt.

 

Applying for a Quota Hunt is simple. Visit GoOutdoorsGeorgia.com and select “Quota Hunts” and follow the steps to complete your application. Need more help?
