DEC Announces 2022 Hunting Season Ties Record for Safest-Ever Year Data Shows Lowest Hunting-Related Shooting Incidents Since Establishment of DEC's Hunter Education Program
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) Commissioner Basil Seggos today announced the 2022 hunting seasons tied 2021 for the safestever year, with the lowest number of hunting-related shooting incidents since record-keeping began. DEC Environmental Conservation Police Officers (ECOs) investigated nine hunting-related shooting incidents (HRSIs) in 2022, including one fatality.
vigilant when heading afield. Each incident could have been prevented if those involved followed the proper hunting safety rules.
All first-time hunters, bowhunters, and trappers must successfully complete a hunter, bowhunter, or trapper education safety course before being eligible to purchase a hunting or trapping license or bowhunting privilege in New York State. DECtrained and certified volunteer instructors have taught hunters "It's clear from these and trappers to be safe, findings that the vast responsible, and ethical majority of New York since 1949. Recently, DEC hunters follow the State's stringent safety guidelines announced the results and do their part to ensure of the second year of a pilot program allowing a safe and enjoyable mentored 12- and 13-yearseason," Commissioner old hunters to harvest Seggos said. "This deer with a firearm or record year for safety is crossbow. The results a testament to the DEC showed youth big game expert staff, volunteers, hunters enjoyed another and local hunting clubs safe, successful, and that work collaboratively well-attended season to teach safety to hunters afield. Learn more of all ages. I commend about DEC's Hunter their efforts and for all Education Program. hunters who safely and responsibly contributed to our conservation DEC encourages hunters efforts this season." to remember the primary Four of the nine HRSIs that occurred in 2022 involved twoparty firearm incidents, while the other five were self-inflicted. The one recorded fatality occurred due to a selfinflicted gunshot wound by a turkey hunter. All identified shooters were experienced hunters with an average of 30 years of hunting experience, emphasizing the need for all hunters to remain
rules of hunter safety: Treat every firearm as if it were loaded; Control the muzzle, keep it pointed in a safe direction; Identify your target and what lies beyond; Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire; and Wear hunter orange and pink. For the past several
years, DEC has also tracked and investigated Elevated Hunting Incidents (EHIs), previously referred to as tree stand incidents. EHIs are underreported and DEC is not always notified when falls occur. In 2022, DEC received reports of 13 EHIs, four of which were fatal. Only two of the 13 hunters involved were wearing a safety harness. Tree-stand safety is integrated into DEC's hunter education course because those incidents have become a major cause of hunting-related injuries. The proper use of tree-stands and treestand safety equipment will help prevent injuries and fatalities. Used correctly, a full body harness and a lifeline keep hunters connected from the time they leave the ground to the moment they get back down. Most tree-stand incidents are preventable when hunters follow the "ABCs" of tree stand safety: Always inspect the tree stand before every use; Buckle full body harness securely every time; and Connect to the tree before your feet leave the ground. A video showing the proper way to climb into and out of a tree stand can be viewed on DEC's YouTube channel (leaves DEC website). More information, including the 2022 Hunting Safety Statistics (PDF) and 2022 Tree Stand Safety Statistics (PDF), is available on DEC's website.
