Just envision this - tens of thousands of upland, forest and wetland hunting acres across the entire state of Iowa! Whether you are in pursuit of one of Iowa's trophy whitetail bucks, or some of the best upland game bird hunting in the Midwest - one of over a thousand hunting areas will provide just the right location for you, no matter what size your hunting party is. Additionally - 16 areas offer archery sites; 26 areas have shooting ranges, and 36 areas have wildlife exhibits featuring many of Iowa's native species. County Conservation Boards are the leaders in Iowa's Hunter Safety Education Program - keep an eye on the EVENTS calendars for a Hunter Education course near you! For additional information on hunting regulations, seasons, etc. - please visit the Iowa Department of Natural Resources website.
