Why are some forests closed to hunting?
Forestry Corporation may open or close forests to hunting at different times so they can manage their commercial logging activities, conduct pest management programs such as dog baiting or because of work, health and safety concerns. Closures are put in place for your safety and the safety of other forest users. GLU works closely with Forestry Corporation to review declared hunting land for R-Licence holders. Forest closures are a regular part of the public land hunting program.
