Hunting in Wyoming: what to know
Licenses & seasons
Refuge hunts follow Wyoming seasons, bag limits and license requirements set by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. 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.
