If you are a hunter in New York, reporting your harvest is not just a good habit; it is the law. How you report depends on whether you use E-tags or paper tags. For paper tags, the rules are a little different. When reporting, you will need some basic information like your license number, date of birth, location, date of the harvest, and the sex of the animal. If you do not have all the required information when you try to report, you will need to try again.
