Squirrel season begins in Georgia on Thursday, Aug. 15.
Both gray and fox squirrels are in season and the maximum daily bag limit is 12 per hunter.
The season will end Feb. 28, 2025.
“If you have kids that are itching to go on their first hunt, squirrel season is a great idea because you don’t have to be absolutely still or quiet, making it an ideal first hunt opportunity,” said Diana McGrath, wildlife biologist with the WRD Game Management Section.
