Game and Fish Commission sets the season

The Wyoming Game and Fish reports that the Game and Fish Commission met in Lander to approve the annual hunting season regulations and quotas. 

After hearing season presentations and reviewing public comments, the Commission passed the 2022 hunting season regulations and quotas. Game and Fish reports the finalized information will be available on the Wyoming Game and Fish Department website and Hunt Planner by the beginning of May.  

The Commission was also given an overview of the department’s chronic wasting disease management surveillance program and ongoing CWD management throughout the state. According to the Game and Fish, research on how to best manage the disease in Wyoming is ongoing, and the department plans to continue outreach efforts to educate hunters and others about the disease.
