Hunting in Tennessee is popular with both inhabitants of the state as well as hunters from around the United States. The state boasts the impressive Tennessee National Wildlife Refuge located in Paris,
which was named one of USA Today’s “12 hidden gems for hunting and fishing.”
Hunters can find a variety of animals in Tennessee, from big game to small game to migratory birds. For big game, Tennessee is known for black bear, deer, elk, and turkey. Migratory birds in the state are waterfowl, woodcocks, and sandhill cranes. There is also a great deal of small game species, including bobcats, coyotes, grouse, and quail.

Another website run by the state government, Hunters Toolbox, provides an access point for hunters to view data from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency. This includes information on big game check stations, biological data, harvest reports, and hunter success.
