Raccoon hunting season begins July 1 in Arkansas

« on: June 30, 2010, 04:41:46 PM »

LITTLE ROCK - It's a unique tradition in Arkansas - listening to the dogs run through the woods and the excitement when they've treed a raccoon. Raccoon hunting season begins July 1 in Arkansas.

AGFC biologist Blake Sasse says that this season features an increased raccoon hunting bag limit on private land. "The bag limit has been raised from one to four per day from July 1-Aug. 31 and from two to four per day from Sept. 1 to the beginning of trapping season," Sasse explained. "We've also increased the raccoon hunting bag limit on WMAs to four per day from July 1-Feb. 28," he added.

Raising the bag limit is part of the agency's goal of increasing raccoon harvest by 10% that was approved by the Commission in the 2001 AGFC Strategic Furbearer Plan. In July and August raccoons can only be hunted at night with the use of dogs, but starting Sept. 1 hunting during the day is allowed until the season closes at the end of March.

"Any people, anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable and most sacred right - a right which we hope and believe is to liberate the world. Nor is this right confined to cases in which the whole people of an existing government may choose to exercise it. Any portion of such people that can, may revolutionize, and make their own, of so many of the territory as they inhabit."-Abe Lincoln
