Hunters reminded to monitor bobcat quota

(VEVAY, Ind.) – The Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is reminding licensed bobcat hunters and trappers to closely monitor the available harvest quota.

The season opened last weekend with a quote of 400 bobcats. The season remains open until January 31. 

Their website now shows the quota at just 280 following the past week. 

“Hunters and trappers are responsible for knowing when the quota has been met, which is when the season automatically closes. They must cease hunting activities targeting bobcats and remove any traps set specifically for them at that time,” Indiana DNR officials said. 

The current reported bobcat harvest can be checked at GoOutdoorsin.com/available-quota or by calling 317-232-4200.
