TWRA Requests Public Input on Proposed 2016-17 Hunting Regulations
NASHVILLE --- The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency is now soliciting comments on the proposed 2016-17 hunting seasons’
regulations that were made at the April meeting of the Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission. This is an opportunity for the
public to share ideas and concerns about the proposed hunting regulations with TWRA staff.
At the April meeting, Agency staff presented the TFWC Wildlife Management Committee with recommendations.
4
Recommendations for the 2016-17 deer seasons included simplifying antlerless regulations, allowing additional antlerless harvest
during gun season, establishing two new deer harvest units and eliminating the Claiborne County special red deer hunt as there
are no more known red deer, a non-native species, in the area.

(“Hunting Seasons Input” ... con’t from p. 4)
There was one recommended change regarding small game hunting. During bear still hunts, small game hunters would no longer be
limited to the breed of dogs they can use in the bear reserves. However, they would be limited to two dogs per vehicle.
An Agency recommendation was made to add four new private land only elk tags, including one designated for youth. Tags would be issued for three new private land elk hunting zones within Campbell, Claiborne, Scott, Anderson and Morgan counties. The zones will

In regard to wild turkey hunting, Agency recommendations included several changes to hunts on Tennessee’s public lands. They
also included lowering the bag limit for fall turkeys from six to three in 16 Middle Tennessee counties and from three to one in
Lincoln and Lewis counties due to declining harvest in TWRA Region II.
Several commissioners made additional recommendations. One would increase the bag limit for the Young Sportsman Turkey
Hunt from one bird for the two-day hunt to one bird per day to match the statewide daily bag and provide additional youth opportunity. Another would open the raccoon season on private lands earlier, from July 1 at sunset until sunset the Friday before Thanksgiving (when the regular season opens) and allow one raccoon per party, per night.
