Hunting is allowed on waterfowl production areas in accordance with state and federal regulations. Hunters should be familiar with all hunting regulations provided in the North Dakota Waterfowl Production Areas - Public Use Regulations brochure.

Waterfowl hunting is popular across the District. Giant Canada geese, mallard, pintail, teal, gadwall, shoveler and redhead are common local nesting birds. Fall migrations bring other species which do not nest locally, such as snow geese, white-fronted geese, and sandhill cranes.



Upland game birds commonly hunted are pheasants, sharp-tailed grouse, and gray partridge. White-tailed deer are also common throughout the District.
