Jackson, Mich. — As firearm deer hunting season begins today (Tuesday, November 15) in Michigan, there are new requirements hunters must follow to report their harvest.
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) requires hunters to report their deer online at mdnr-elicense.com/harvestreport within 72 hours of harvest or before transferring possession of the animal. More information can be found in the 2022 Michigan Hunting Digest by the DNR.
