The Morris County Park Commission is currently responsible for the stewardship of 20,437 acres of land with over 232 miles of trails. It recognizes that a controlled hunting program is the most efficient and effective way available to minimize the severe threats posed to the biodiversity of native flora and fauna by overabundant white-tailed deer populations. The MCPC's controlled hunts are specifically used as a population management tool and do not represent recreational hunting opportunities.To request an application for the 2023-24 Deer Management Program, please add your name and email to our distribution list by using the following link: https://arcg.is/04WmqG0.
Applications will be sent automatically to all eligible hunters who participated during the previous season on Friday, July 28th, and new hunters on August 11th.
