The official regulations have the final word

These dates come from rows a person checked against the Wyoming Game and Fish Department's regulations, but bag limits, licences, draws, legal hours and closures are set there and can change during the season. Read them before you hunt.

HuntGrid isn't affiliated with the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. A season shows here only once a person has checked it; others may exist.
