Wildlife Proclamations

Note: This database includes proclamations dating back to 6/30/2005. For prior proclamations, go to the Tennessee Administrative Register Archive.

Wildlife Proclamations contain seasons, creel, size and bag limits, and areas open to hunting and/or fishing. They also establish wildlife and/or public hunting areas and declare the manner and means of taking. Since Wildlife Proclamations are published in their entirety in the T.A.R., they are not published in the official compilation-Rules and Regulations of the State of Tennessee.
