Deer season closed in Nebraska

Deer season in Nebraska officially closed Jan. 15 when the late antlerless seasons ended.

The river antlerless season was shortened due to reduced deer numbers across much of the state. That season now aligns with the rest of the antlerless seasons, and all of them closed Jan. 15.

Final deer harvest results will be available late next month at OutdoorNebraska.gov; search “wildlife surveys”.

Hunters interested in learning more about the 2024 season, big game research and management will be able to view a recording of the online big game informational session via Nebraska Game and Parks’ YouTube channel.

Find additional information about deer management, harvest success and other hunting opportunities at OutdoorNebraska.gov.
