Title: Migratory Bird Hunting; 2024–25 Migratory Game Bird Hunting Regulations 
Abstract:

This rulemaking action establishes annual hunting regulations for certain migratory game birds during the 2024-2025 season. FWS annually prescribes the frameworks, or outside limits, for season lengths, bag limits, and areas for migratory game bird hunting. After these frameworks are established, States and Tribes may select season dates, bag limits, and other regulatory options for their hunting seasons. Migratory bird management is a cooperative effort of Federal, State, and Tribal governments.
