DES MOINES —The DNR’s live question and answer session on Facebook regarding changes to hunting regulations has been moved from Feb. 25 to Feb. 26.

The DNR is asking Iowans to share their hunting and trapping successes in 2013 and comment on what changes they’d like to see in 2014 in the session. DNR wildlife research supervisor Willie Suchy will answer questions live from noon to 2:30 p.m.

To ask a question, post it as a comment on the “Live Q&A” post that the DNR will post at noon Feb. 26. You can also post questions ahead of time on the DNR’s Facebook Timeline at www.facebook.com/iowadnr. Questions received after 2:30 p.m. will be answered, but at a later time.

The live Q&A will now be held on the same day as statewide public meetings that will also gather comments and suggestions for changes in the 2014 hunting and trapping seasons. Information on the Feb. 26 evening meetings, including locations, is available at http://www.iowadnr.gov/hunting.
