N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s deer archery season is now underway. The state Game and Fish Department is reminding bowhunters that they must follow all regulations of the managing agency when using tree stands on public hunting areas. That includes displaying the owner’s name, address and telephone number on tree stands left unattended on Game and Fish wildlife management areas.

In addition, hunting big game over bait is prohibited on both public and private land in several deer units west of the Missouri River. The archery season is open now through next Jan. 5.
