Hunting is an important wildlife management tool that we recognize as a healthy, traditional outdoor pastime, deeply rooted in America’s heritage. Hunting can instill a unique understanding and appreciate of wildlife, their behavior, and their habitat needs. As practiced on refuges, hunting, trapping and fishing do not pose a threat to wildlife populations, and in some instances are necessary for sound wildlife management. For example, because their natural predators are gone, deer populations will often grow too large for the refuge habitat to support.
Central Arkansas National Wildlife Refuges offer visitors numerous hunting opportunities. Refer to each Refuge’s Public Use Regulations for a complete list specific seasons and regulations as they are updated annually. Bald Knob NWR, Holla Bend NWR, Wapanocca NWR, Cache River NWR, Big Lake NWR.
