Nebraska Game and Parks reminds outdoors enthusiasts that dogs are not allowed on state wildlife management areas from May 1 through July 31, except in “authorized dog training areas.”
The seasonal restriction aims to protect wildlife during breeding and nesting season.
Authorized dog training areas are marked by signage; other than in these designated areas, it is unlawful to exercise, run, train or hunt with dogs on the property.
Game and Parks manages more than 250 WMAs across Nebraska in partnership with state and federal partners. These areas are maintained to provide quality habitat, so native and migratory species have a safe place to breed, rest and feed.
While WMAs are open year-round for hunting, trapping, fishing and other outdoor activities, Game and Parks staff urge everyone to follow these guidelines to contribute to conservation efforts that are in balance with recreation needs.
