The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has announced the 2024-2025 deer season dates. The season will run from August 10, 2024, to January 19, 2025. During this time, hunters will be able to take deer in designated areas throughout the state. The CDFW sets deer season dates to manage the deer population and provide hunting opportunities for the public.
Deer hunting is a popular recreational activity in California, and it generates millions of dollars in revenue for the state each year. In addition to providing hunting opportunities, deer hunting also helps to control the deer population, which can damage crops and spread disease.
