The 15th year of public waterway alligator hunting is starting. The season will start today at noon and will end Monday, September 9.

960 permits in seven hunting were given out during two random drawings. The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks said they received 4,414 hunting permit requests for the season during the June application period.

Wildlife officials with MDWFP expect high participation this hunting season due to above normal rainfall helping to give favorable navigation conditions in rivers.
