Severin recently reposted an Illinois Department of Natural Resources to his Facebook page that highlights the Illinois Firearm Deer Hunting Season now running through Dec. 5.

“ILHuntHunters in Illinois harvested a preliminary total of 50,300 deer during the first weekend of the Illinois firearm deer season between Nov. 19-21,” the post added. “Comparatively, hunters took 47,147 deer during the first firearm weekend in 2020. Muzzleloader only season is three days: Dec. 10-12.”

Late-winter antlerless-only and Chronic Wasting Disease deer seasons run from Dec. 30 thru Jan. 2 and Jan.14-16, while archery deer season continues through Jan. 16, according to the Department of Natural Resources.
