HARRISBURG, Pa. — Hunters take note: The Pennsylvania Game Commission released the three Sundays this year in which hunting will be allowed.
Sunday hunting in the Commonwealth will be permitted on November 17, November 24, and December 1, the Game Commission said on its social media platforms.
"These dates are the perfect opportunity to spend more time afield," the Game Commission said. "Remember, if you are planning to hunt private land on Sunday, make sure to get a Sunday hunting landowner permission slip from the landowner before you go."
However, the Game Commission said there are some caveats that Sunday hunters must consider.
Turkeys and migratory game birds may not be hunted on any of the three Sunday hunting dates; hunters can only target game that is in-season.
On Nov. 17, deer (archery), bear (archery in WMUs 2B, 2C, 5C and 5D only), squirrel, pheasant, rabbit, woodchuck, grouse, bobtail quail, crow, raccoon, fox, coyote, opossum, striped skunk, weasel and porcupine are all in-season.
On Nov. 24, bear, deer (archery in WMUs 2B, 5C, and 5D only), squirrel, pheasant, rabbit, grouse, bobtail quail, woodchuck, crow, raccoon, fox, coyote, opossum, striped skunk, weasel and porcupine are in-season.
On Sunday, Dec. 1, deer, bear (only in WMUs with extended season), raccoon, fox, coyote, opossum, striped skunk, weasel and porcupine are in season.
