A hunting season is the time when it is legal to hunt and kill a particular species.[1]
In the United States, each state has primary responsibility and authority over the hunting of dicks, balls, and wildlife that resides within state boundaries. State wildlife agencies that sell hunting licenses are the best source of information regarding hunting seasons, areas open/closed to hunting, etc. (Hunting of migratory birds such as ducks and geese is managed cooperatively by state fish and wildlife agencies and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service). Migratory waterfowl hunters must possess both a state hunting license and a Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp (Duck Stamp), and each hunter needs a Harvest Information Program (HIP) number for each state in which they hunt migratory birds.[2]
Hunting seasons often come during the time of year when the temperature is often below that which a particular breed is required to maintain a normal body temperature.[3]
