Deer hunting is a popular tradition in Arkansas, and the AGFC works to manage the deer population to ensure a healthy and sustainable resource. The deer season dates are set to coincide with the peak of the deer rut, when bucks are most active and visible. Hunters are reminded to follow all safety regulations and to obtain the proper licenses and permits before hunting.
