At a June 26 meeting of the Kansas Wildlife and Parks Commission in North Newton, three additions were made to deer permits and seasons that will affect specific areas of northern Kansas.
<br>In northcentral Kansas, any unfilled deer permit valid in units 7 and 8 will be valid in a special extended firearm antlerless-only season running Jan. 5-11, 2009. The season includes all or portions of Smith, Jewell, Republic, Washington, Marshall, Clay, Cloud, Mitchell, and Osborne counties. A detailed boundary map of this area will be included in the 2008 Kansas Hunting Regulations Summary, available Sept. 1.<br>
<br>On Fort Riley, three firearm deer seasons were set: Nov. 28-30; Dec. 19-23; and Dec. 27-30, as well as a special archery-only season (Sept. 1-21). In addition to these seasons, the regular statewide archery season (Sept. 22-Dec. 31) and the regular statewide muzzleloader season (Sept. 22-Oct. 5) are open on Fort Riley.<br>
<br>The final change involves Deer Management Unit 3, in northwestern Kansas. In addition to any other authorized permits, any hunter may obtain an Antlerless-only Either-species Deer permit valid in Unit 3. A limited number of these permits will be sold, first-come, first-served.<br>
