Good luck to all the NYS Bear hunters this weekend. Season begins September 11th
Reminder, we are a NYS Check station and will be available to weigh/skin your bear!
"Early black bear hunting seasons are an important tool to manage bear populations and provide a great opportunity for hunters to enjoy a late summer outing," said Commissioner Seggos. "Bears are feeding heavily this time of year, gorging on wild nuts, berries, apples, and frequently in corn fields, as well. Hunters can increase their odds of finding a bear by keying in on concentrated natural food sources."
