General guidelines:
* Most states have squirrel hunting seasons that typically run from late summer to early winter. This coincides with the time when squirrels are most active and their pelts are prime.
* Some states have separate seasons for different species of squirrels. For example, some states may have an earlier season for gray squirrels and a later season for fox squirrels.
* Hunting seasons can also vary within a state. For example, some counties might have different opening and closing dates than others.
To find out the specific hunting season for your area, you need to consult your state's wildlife agency website or contact your local game warden.
Here's how to find information on your state's hunting regulations:
1. Go to your state's Department of Fish and Wildlife website. You can usually find this by searching for "[your state] wildlife" on Google.
2. Look for the "hunting" or "trapping" section. This will likely contain a hunting regulations booklet, a calendar of seasons, or a map showing hunting zones.
3. Search for "squirrel" or "tree squirrel" to find the specific regulations for squirrel hunting.
Remember to always follow all applicable hunting regulations and safety precautions. This includes having a valid hunting license, understanding the legal hunting methods, and being aware of your surroundings.
