Wyoming deer hunting

Wyoming hosts both mule deer and white-tailed deer. Mule deer are both Wyoming’s most populous and sought-after deer. Mule deer are found from high in the western mountains to the low elevation creek bottoms of eastern Wyoming and most habitats in between. Many hunters choose where they hunt mule deer based on the type of terrain and scenery they want to experience in Wyoming.
Whitetails are abundant in the Black Hills of northeast Wyoming. Elsewhere they are found primarily along the bottoms of lower elevation creeks and rivers, in farm country of the eastern
third of the state and the Big Horn Basin and Riverton area in north central Wyoming.
Wyoming has seasons opening as early as September 10 for rifle deer hunting and doe/fawn
seasons closing as late as December. Wyoming offers very little hunting during the rut, or
breeding season, for buck mule deer. However, most buck whitetail seasons are open in
November during the peak of the rut. http://gf.state.wy.us/index.asp
