Game and Parks seeks input on duck zone and goose unit boundaries

LINCOLN — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is seeking additional input on proposed changes to the 2016-2017 season duck zone and goose unit boundaries.

The proposed changes are based on input received from hunters. Game and Parks urges hunter participation at each step of the way so changes reflect hunter preferences.

In order to provide feedback on proposed changes for 2016-2017, hunters can visit OutdoorNebraska.org, and then click on the “Hunting” tab, then “Waterfowl.” On the waterfowl home page, hunters will find descriptions of the proposed changes, maps of the current and proposed duck and goose zones and an input form for providing feedback.  Hunters who wish to provide feedback can print the form, fill it out and mail it to the address listed on the form by July 31.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) allows changes to duck zone boundaries every five years.
