Mississippi reminds migratory bird hunters to complete HIP survey

Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks (MDWFP) reminds migratory bird hunters to complete the Harvest Information Program (HIP) survey before heading into the field this season. The survey is free and accessible through the MDWFP licensing system.

Hunters must complete the HIP survey prior to hunting any migratory bird species. The survey helps gather important data to support wildlife management efforts.

According to MDWFP, the process takes just a few minutes. Hunters can complete the survey online at https://licensing.outdoors.ms/product/110?yr=2027&catalogItem=All. Officials advise completing the survey now to ensure compliance before the season starts.

For more information, hunters are encouraged to visit the MDWFP website or contact the agency directly. The department emphasizes that the survey is a crucial step for legal and responsible migratory bird hunting in Mississippi.
