Increasing recreational opportunity and access for the people of Louisiana remains a driving factor for my administration,” said Secretary Tyler Bosworth. “Hunting in Louisiana is a time-honored tradition and a right of our citizens that we are proud to protect.”
Secretary Bosworth encourages hunters to remember to keep safety as a
top priority and stay respectful of the land, wildlife, and rules set in place to promote the longevity of Louisiana’s natural resources for generations to come.
