DNR urging hunters to make a plan before heading out prior to the opener

KSTP Hunting Season Guide 

"We wish all hunters a safe and successful deer season," said DNR Commissioner Sarah Strommen. "As hunters continue Minnesota's time-honored deer hunting tradition, there are some extra considerations this year as we prepare for deer camp."

The DNR recommends making a seven-point checklist that is as follows:

1. Buy a license
2. Know the regulations
3. Know where your deer will be processed
4. Be safe
5. Take appropriate measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19
6. Get deer tested if hunting in designated areas
7. Enjoy the hunt!
