NASHVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – The newest edition of the Tennessee Hunting and Trapping Guide is now available. The guide can be found at all Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency offices and will be distributed at license vendors throughout the state.

Those wanting a digital copy can find the guide online. Users may access the new interactive, mobile-friendly, e-regulations site, or download the full PDF document as in years past.

Both options are available on the agency website.

There are several important changes for the 2019-20 hunting and trapping seasons. Chronic wasting disease (CWD) was detected in Tennessee in December 2018 in Fayette, Hardeman, and Madison counties. As a result, a number of changes apply to southwestern Tennessee counties and are outlined in detail in the guide.

New regulations on usage or possession of natural deer and elk urine while hunting will be in effect. Duck season dates and bag limits have been updated.

Sportsmen are urged to get the new-improved “TWRA On the Go” app and report harvests with or without cell phone service.
