Washington Dept. of Fish and Wildlife - Fishing, hunting, recreation

With a variety of resident game bird hunting seasons underway in Washington, WDFW has gathered some top tips on each species to help hunters on both sides of the state bag their limits.

In the 2021 license year, WDFW is starting a pilot program to evaluate how hunters can help reduce the prevalence of elk hoof disease. 

WDFW has re-established a hotline to report sick, injured, or dead swans in western Washington counties as part of its ongoing effort to assess the impact of lead poisoning on trumpeter and tundra swans.
