SQUIRRELS
The hunting season on eastern gray and fox squirrels runs May 22 through Feb. 15, 2022. Allowed methods include shotguns, rifles, and other legal firearm methods, as well as archery equipment, slingshots, or atlatls. The daily limit for hunting and trapping is ten and the possession limit is 20. Hunters may harvest squirrels with the following permits: Archery Hunting, Daily Small Game, Small Game Hunting and Fishing, and Small Game Hunting.
“Pursuing small game is a great way to introduce people to hunting,” said MDC Education Program Coordinator Justin McGuire. “Because of the long season, liberal daily limits, and abundance of game, squirrel hunting provides lots of outdoor opportunity throughout different seasons in Missouri.”
