NY State DEC Proposes to Modernize Deer Hunting Regulations
- On July 2, 2025, the state's environmental agency introduced proposed changes to deer hunting rules intended to modernize the tagging process and increase opportunities for young hunters.
- These updates reflect public input and introduce electronic tagging options, shorten the harvest reporting window for paper tag users from seven days to 48 hours, and modify the program that provides permits and tags to assist with deer population control.
- The DMAP proposal extends permit renewal from three to five years and removes the cap of four tags per hunter, aiming to support consistent deer management and reduce paperwork.
- Director Jacqueline Lendrum stated that the DEC plans to revise regulations to enhance deer management and the hunting experience by introducing a simplified digital system for tagging and reporting, aligning with public feedback.
- The DEC is accepting public comments on these proposed regulations through August 18, 2025, to help shape modernized hunting practices and improved management.
