Kentucky deer hunters can help themselves and state managers by completing emailed surveys on future deer hunting regulations in chronic wasting disease (CWD) surveillance zones.
The Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources has been sending out online surveys to those who purchased deer permits or sportsman or senior/disabled licenses that include deer permits during the 2023-24 license year.
