    Chapter 5, Antelope Hunting Seasons At the time of this filing, the 2020 antelope harvest information is not yet available to the Department. Individual hunt area regular hunting season dates, special archery hunting season dates, hunt area limitations, license types and license quotas may be modified after harvest data has been evaluated. Any additional proposed changes to regular hunting season dates, special archery hunting season dates, hunt area limitations, numbers of limited quota licenses, license types, hunt area boundaries or modifications to other hunting provisions shall be made available for public comment on the Department website. An updated draft of 2021antelope hunting season proposals will also be posted to the Department website during the later portion of the public comment period. Section 4, edits have been proposed to further clarify antelope hunting season provisions for persons who qualify for and are in possession of hunting season extension permits. During the 2020 hunting season, special archery season information was repositioned within this regulation and caused some confusion among hunting season extension permit holders. The edited language in this Section is meant to clarify when a hunting season extension permit is valid. Please scroll down to view the regulation or click the down arrow for the next page.
