During the 2021-2022 hunting seasons, Environmental Conservation Officers patrolled the lands and waters of New York State to ensure hunters were hunting safely and in accordance with the State Environmental Conservation Law. With the final day of the open deer season now closed, ECOs compiled information about offenses.

ECOs remind everyone to exercise safety and prudence when out in the field recreating. If anyone sees a potential environmental crime, report it to 1-844-DEC-ECOs (1-844-332-3267).
