This digest is not the Game & Wildlife Code or its attendant regulations and should not be considered final on legal interpretation.
The digest simply is a summary of the more important and frequently misunderstood hunting and trapping regulations.
Review the digest carefully. If there is anything you do not understand, contact your nearest Game Commission office.
Hunting and trapping are privileges in Pennsylvania. Remember, a license does not entitle you to trespass on private lands. Hunters and furtakers may be prosecuted for trespassing, whether or not a property is posted against hunting or trapping.
Always ask permission to hunt or trap, and make sure you are a welcomed guest of the landowner.
A private landowner who permits hunting or trapping does not extend assurance that the premises are safe and does not assume responsibility or incur liability for injury.
