		PUBLIC HUNTING LANDS AVAILABLE Hunting seasons are upon us and hunters looking for a place to hunt in Tennessee are fortunate to have over one million acres of public hunting lands available. These lands include TWRA Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) and Public Hunting Areas (PHAs). Spread across the state, these lands are as varied as Tennessee, and are within a short distance of Tennessee hunters. Although all wildlife species are not found on every tract, excellent hunting is available. Depending on the location and the hunting season, hunters can expect to find deer, boar, black bear, wild turkey, waterfowl, grouse, squirrel, quail and rabbit. "For years, hunters have read in major outdoor publications that public hunting lands are over crowded and should be avoided if a hunter wanted a quality hunt, " stated Dave Gabbard, TWRA Region I Information Coordinator. "This is not the case for the majority of lands available for public hunting. Some of our lands receive very little hunting pressure throughout the season and can offer Tennessee hunters an excellent opportunity for a good day afield." A complete listing of Tennessee public hunting lands and the rules and regulations that apply to them can be found in the 2002-2003 Tennessee Hunting and Trapping Guide available at all TWRA offices or wherever hunting licenses are sold. Hunters can also go on line at www.tnwildlife.org.
