Farmers have an opportunity to submit ideas for changes they would like to see in hunting, trapping, and wildlife regulations for the 2021-2022 seasons. The Department of Wildlife Resources will take this information into account when considering potential regulation changes. It is important for farmers to voice their concerns about areas that affect them, such as wildlife damage to crops and livestock, and offer possible solutions.

Please take the time to complete DWR’s comment form, which can be found here. Completed forms can also be emailed to RegComments@dwr.virginia.gov or mailed to Department of Wildlife Resources, Regulatory Coordinator, P.O. Box 90778, Henrico, Virginia 23228-0778. Comments are due December 11, 2020. Farm Bureau members who need assistance should contact Stefanie Taillon at stefanie.kitchen@vafb.com.
