all, the seasons are the most liberal
in many, many years.
These changes and departures can
be noted by comparing the 1956
seasons with those of 1955:
The season for hunting squirrels
(gray, black and fox), ruffed grouse
and wild turkeys has been extended
from the usual four weeks to five
weeks this year. It begins October

The mink and muskrat seasons |
were changed so as to run concur-
rently, December 1, 1956, to Janu-
ary 15, 1957, which is also a de- |
parture from long standing pro-|
cedure. |
{

big game, the shooting hours daily

from July 1 to September 30 inclus-
ive, 6 am. to 7:30 p.m., and the
hours for the October archers’ deer
season, which are 6 a.m. to 5:30
p.m. (All shooting hours are based
on Eastern Standard Time. The

“The season bears will be for one
week this year, November 26 to
December 1, inclusive. Only bears
over one year old are legal game.
An individual hunter may take one
bear in the 1956 season. A hunting

Bow Season for Deer:
The three-week archers’ season,
October 1 to 19 inclusive, will be
for male deer only as described in
cense every bow hunter, without
exception, must procure a special
archery license costing $2.00 from
the Department of Revenue, Harris-
burg, in order to hunt during the
special bow season. Shooting hours
during the special bow and arrow
season for deer shall be from 6 a.m.
to 5:30 p.m., ES.T., all days of the
season.
No Antlerless Deer Season:
For the following reasons the
Game Commission did not declare
an antlerless deer season this year:
With the exception of some coun- .
ties in the northcentral and north-
west parts of the state the antler-
less deer season of 1955, along with
winter kill and accidental deer kills,
have somewhat alleviated the over-
all deer problem temporarily.
Furbearers:
The mink and muskrat season
will run concurrently, December 1,
1956 to January 15, 1957. These
furbearers may be taken in un-
limited numbers.
Skunks and opossums remain un-
protected and may be taken in un-
limited numbers.
Beavers may be trapped, state-
wide, February 14 to March 11,
1957. The daily limit is 4, the seas-
on limit is 4.
All hunting and trapping dates
given above are inclusive, except
that the last day of each trapping
season terminates at noon.
Closed Seasons:
There will be no open season on:
Hungarian partridges, hen pheas-
ants, sharp-tailed grouse, cub bears,
elk, antlerless deer, bucks with ant-
lers less than three inches long, and
otters. 3
