Georgia’s 2026 turkey season is underway, and early outlooks suggest hunters could see improved opportunities in the woods this spring, according to Georgia Outdoor News.
The Georgia House has approved legislation aimed at expanding how landowners and wildlife control operators can trap and hunt feral hogs—an invasive species blamed for widespread damage to crops, pastures, wildlife habitat, and property across the state. Supporters say the measure is designed to remove red tape and help reduce hog populations that reproduce quickly and are difficult to control.
‘Tis the season for searching high and low for the perfect gift—and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division says there’s an easy idea for the outdoor lover in your life: a hunting or fishing license.
