A temporary rule change will go into effect for hunting at Puʻu Waʻawaʻa Forest Reserve (Unit F) and Puʻu Anahulu Game Management Area (Unit E) this Saturday, September 27. The rule change coincides with the opening of the hunting season for muzzleloaders and shotguns (with slug) and pertains to the makai areas of these hunting units.

Per the new rules, the daily bag limits for goats will be three, with no requirement for tags. Open hunting days will be Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays throughout the season. Vehicular access to the two hunting areas may change each week, according to management actions in the area.

Details on updated seasons and bag limits can be found in the Adaptive Rules Management summary on the DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife website.
