Dove Hunt Permits Available for RGV Except in La Grulla

Dove hunt permits are now available at the Santa Ana National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) Visitor Center through Oct. 31, 2010.  The Monte Christo tract of the Lower Rio Grande Valley (LRGV) NWR provides 2,700 acres of public lands open to dove hunters for $30. To participate in the public lands hunt, participants must have a permit issued by the LRGV NWR.  They must also have a valid hunting license, proof of hunter’s education certification, and a photo identification on them while in the field.  The La Grulla tract of LRGV NWR is closed to dove hunting this season due to damages from the prolonged flooding.  For more information about hunting opportunities on refuge lands, please call 956-784-7500 or visit www.friendsofsouthtexasrefuges.org.
