With the arrival of the annual Youth Spring Wild Turkey Day also comes the beginning of electronic registration — or at least the option of doing so. Beginning this spring, successful turkey hunters may either have their birds tagged at a game registration station or they may use the state’s online platform to register the birds electronically. Rolling out electronic registration for harvested game is a big step for the state. It will allow DIF&W to gauge interest in a more modern method for tagging, one that also likely will serve as a precursor for future efforts to enable electronic registration of other species.
