North Dakota Deer Hunting by County

North Dakotareports 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 North Dakota season dates or the North Dakota wildlife agency for unit-level harvest data.

North Dakota publishes deer harvest by unit, not by county, so these are statewide totals — not a county figure. Source: North Dakota Game & Fish.
