AZGFD proposes recommendations for 2026 turkey, bison seasons

PHOENIX — The Arizona Game and Fish Department’s proposed recommendations for the 2026 spring and fall seasons for turkey and bison are available for review at www.azgfd.com/hunting/regulations/hunt-guidelines-process/.  

In addition, proposed recommendations for the take of raptors, amphibians, crustaceans and mollusks, and reptiles for the 2026-2030 seasons are posted on the department’s website.  

The hunt structures and recommendations were formulated based on the hunt guidelines recently approved by the Arizona Game and Fish Commission.

All questions or comments about a particular game management unit or hunt can be emailed to AZHuntGuidelines@azgfd.gov. The public also is invited to call any of the department’s regional offices statewide and ask to speak with a game management biologist. No formal presentations are planned. 

The proposed hunt recommendations could be presented to the commission for its consideration during a public meeting Aug. 8 at Little America Hotel, 2515 E. Butler Ave., in Flagstaff, Ariz. The agenda will be posted at www.azgfd.gov/commission
