Hunting in Oregon: what to know

Licenses & seasons

Refuge hunts follow Oregon seasons, bag limits and license requirements set by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Refuges may be more restrictive — never less — than state rules.

Refuge-specific rules

Each refuge publishes hunt regulations in 50 CFR Part 32 and in its hunt brochure. Units marked special regulations may limit species, dates, weapons, or require quota permits.
