Vermont Fish and Wildlife officials are urging hunters to report their turkeys via their online reporting system, reports NBC 5.
The COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing measures has led officials to transfer to the “online-only” reporting system, where hunters are legally required to report their turkeys within the first 48 hours after their hunt.
According to turkey biologist Chris Bernier, this process has been successfully implemented in other states and will hopefully keep people safe. The online information required includes; biological measurements, contact information, harvest details, license, and tag.
VT’s spring turkey season runs from May 1 through May 31.
