The Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) has scheduled a two-day upland game hunting season for youth hunters 15 years of age or younger. Dates for the youth hunt are Sept. 28-29.

Any youth participating in this hunt must be accompanied by an adult who is at least 18 years of age. Those hunters 12 -15 years of age are required to possess a Nevada junior hunting license with an upland game bird stamp. This hunt provides youngsters with an opportunity to harvest several types of upland game including cottontail, pygmy and white-tailed rabbits, California and Gambel's quail and chukar.

Hunter education classes are available prior to the youth hunt and are required for the purchase of a hunting license by anyone born after Jan. 1, 1960. "The hunter education class offers training in safe and ethical hunting practices, and is a valuable resource even if the purchase of a license is not required," said Doug Nielsen, Conservation Education supervisor for NDOW.

The Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) protects, restores and manages fish and wildlife, and promotes fishing, hunting, and boating safety. NDOW's wildlife and habitat conservation efforts are primarily funded by sportsmen's license and conservation fees and a federal surcharge on hunting and fishing gear. Support wildlife and habitat conservation in Nevada by purchasing a hunting, fishing, or combination license. Find us on Facebook, Twitter or visit us at www.ndow.org.www.ndow.org.
