New Jersey Deer Hunting by County

New Jerseyreports 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 New Jersey season dates or the New Jersey wildlife agency for unit-level harvest data.

New Jersey publishes deer harvest by deer management zone, not by county, so these are statewide totals — not a county figure. Source: NJ Fish & Wildlife.
