RALEIGH — A public forum May 24 at Alamance Community College will be one of nine that the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission plans across the state to collect input on white-tailed deer management, including potential changes to seasons and bag limits.

The forum is at 7 p.m. at ACC, 1247 Jimmie Kerr Road, Graham.


The commission surveyed hunters last year to understand their expectations and desires. The forums will present those results, discuss potential management options, and get additional feedback from hunters and other interested parties.

The forums aren’t public hearings, and the options presented aren’t proposed regulations. Any changes in regulations will be presented at public hearings next January.
