Connecticut Deer Hunting by County

Connecticutreports its deer harvest by management unit rather than by county, so county-level harvest totals aren't available here. Public land and terrain are still broken out by county below.

See Connecticut season dates or the Connecticut wildlife agency for unit-level harvest data.

Connecticut publishes deer harvest by deer management zone, not by county, so these are statewide totals — not a county figure. Source: CT DEEP.
